SIRSi-Vaccine dynamical model for Covid-19 pandemic

Abstract

The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), or Covid-19, burst into a pandemic in the beginning of 2020. An unprecedented worldwide effort involving academic institutions, regulatory agencies and industry is facing the challenges imposed by the rapidly spreading disease. Emergency use authorization for vaccines were granted in the beginning of December 2020 in Europe and nine days later in the United States. The urge for vaccination started a race, forcing governs and health care agencies to take decisions on the fly regarding the vaccination strategy and logistics. So far, the vaccination strategies and non-pharmaceutical interventions, such as social distancing and the use of face masks, are the only efficient actions to stop the pandemic. In this context, it is of fundamental importance to understand the dynamical behavior of the Covid-19 spread along with possible vaccination strategies. In this work a Susceptible - Infected - Removed - Sick with vaccination (SIRSi-Vaccine) model is proposed. In addtion, the SIRSi-Vaccine model also accounts for unreported, or asymptomatic, cases and the possibility of temporary immunity, either after infection or vaccination. Disease free and endemic equilibrium points existence conditions are determined in the (! ? ?) vaccine-effort and social distancing parameter space. The model is adjusted to the data from S\~ao Paulo, Santos and Campinas, three major cities in the State of S\~ao Paulo, Brazil.

Admissible Fourier Lengths, KAM Reducibility, and Spectral Applications

We develop a perturbative KAM reducibility theory for one-frequency $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ cocycles based on an admissible Fourier length $\ell$. The regularity relevant to the iteration is measured by positive adapted Fourier width rather than ordinary smoothness in the Euclidean length $|n|$. The same length governs Fourier decay, truncation and resonance scales, and the arithmetic condition controlling the small divisors. This framework contains the classical analytic and Gevrey settings, while non-monotone choices of $\ell$ allow classical nowhere differentiable Weierstrass-type perturbations and continuous perturbations outside every positive H\"older class. As spectral applications, we obtain purely absolutely continuous spectrum for every phase and $1/2$-H\"older continuity of the integrated density of states for the associated quasiperiodic Schr\"odinger operators. The Aubry dual has pure point spectrum for Lebesgue almost every dual phase, with eigenfunctions exponentially localized in the metric induced by $\ell$. We also construct nowhere differentiable quasiperiodic potentials with purely absolutely continuous Cantor spectrum.

Dynamics inside the attracting basins of some skew products

Polynomial skew products in $\mathbb{C}^2$ are maps of the form $F(z,w)=(P(z),Q(z,w))$, where $P$ and $Q$ are polynomials. Their local dynamics have been widely investigated. In this paper, we study the global dynamics inside Fatou components of some skew products. We consider all the inverse images in a Fatou component of a given point and use the Kobayashi metric to measure the distance between points. In the cases we consider, there are always arbitrarily large Kobayashi balls in the complement of these inverse sets.

Ergodicity of dynamical systems without uniqueness of orbits

Recently, there has been considerable interest in the study of non-deterministic dynamical systems. To analyze the chaotic behavior of such systems from a measure-theoretic viewpoint, it is desirable to consider ergodicity. However, the classical definition of ergodicity involves invariant sets, whose definition is not unique for non-deterministic dynamical systems. Thus, we are led to the question of which invariance yields an interesting definition of ergodicity. Here, we propose a definition based on the strong backward invariance and show that analogs of classical results hold. We also consider implications of the Birkhoff ergodic theorem for systems without uniqueness of orbits.
