Existence and data dependence for multivalued weakly Ćirić-contractive operators.
An SEIR model with periodic coefficients in epidemiology is considered. The global existence of periodic solutions with strictly positive components for this model is established by using the method of coincidence degree. Furthermore, a sufficient condition for the global stability of this model is obtained. An example based on the transmission of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is included.
The purpose of this note is to provide a substantial improvement and appreciable generalizations of recent results of Beg and Azam; Pathak, Kang and Cho; Shiau, Tan and Wong; Singh and Mishra.
