Bifurcations of an SIRS model with generalized non-monotone incidence rate

Abstract We consider an SIRS epidemic model with a more generalized non-monotone incidence: χ(I)=κIp1+Iq $\chi(I)=\frac{\kappa I^{p}}{1+I^{q}}$ with 0<p<q $0< p< q$, describing the psychological effect of some serious diseases when the number of infective individuals is getting larger. B...
