Abstract

This paper studies and models the random spread of an infection in a population. It extends the traditional deterministic modeling approach by incorporating discrete-time stochastic modeling using Markov chains. The probability of extinction and disease persistence is then investigated using the branching chain method, with a focus on a quantity in the non-random model, which is called the basic reproductive number. Moreover, the random model is transformed into a system of stochastic differential equations by approximating the probability distribution function using the forward Kolmogorov equation. An equivalent stochastic differential system is also introduced and examined for the stochastic model. Finally, numerical simulations of the stochastic models are conducted to evaluate the theoretical findings presented in the paper.
