Abstract

Due to the negative impact of infectious diseases on population growth, it is important to understand the dynamic behavior of such diseases. Mathematical deterministic SIR models are widely used to study the spread of infectious diseases. In real life, there is a lot of randomness and stochasticity such as environmental noise, so using stochastic models is more suitable. Suppose we want to take into account abrupt environmental perturbations, such as epidemics, fires, earthquakes, etc. in the considered models. In that case, we must introduce Poisson noises into the population models for describing such discontinuous systems. The existence and uniqueness of the global positive solution are proved for the system of stochastic differential equations describing a non-autonomous SIR model disturbed by white noise, centered and non-centered Poisson noises. In the deterministic case there is a threshold of the system for an epidemic to occur, so called the basic reproduction number. Depending on the value of the reproduction number there is the disease-free equilibrium, or there is an endemic equilibrium, which implies the disease always remains. In the case of the autonomous stochastic SIR model, we study the asymptotic behavior of the solution to the corresponding system of stochastic differential equations around these points of equilibrium.
