This paper investigates the problem of traveling wave solutions for an SEIR epidemic model with discrete diffusion, obtaining threshold conditions for the existence and nonexistence of TWS based on the threshold number R-0. It is shown that the critical wave speed c* can be found if R-0 > 1, with TWS existing for c > c* and not existing for c < c*. Furthermore, nonexistence of TWS is also demonstrated for R-0 <= 1, with biological explanations provided from an epidemiological perspective.
This paper is considering the problem of traveling wave solutions (TWS) for a susceptible-exposed-infectious-recovered (SEIR) epidemic model with discrete diffusion. The threshold condition for the existence and nonexistence of TWS is obtained. More specifically, such kind of solutions are governed by the threshold number R-0. We can find a critical wave speed c* if R-0 > 1, by employing the Schauder's fixed point theorem, limiting argument and two-sided Laplace transform, we confirm that there exists TWS for c > c*, while there exists no TWS for c < c*. We also obtain the nonexistence of TWS for R-0 <= 1. At last, we give some biological explanations from the epidemiological perspective.
