Nonsmooth Bifurcations and the Role of Density Dependence in a Chaotic Infectious Disease Model

Discrete dynamical systems can exhibit rich and interesting dynamics at lower dimensions (and co-dimensions) than that of ODE models. Classically, the minimal dimension to observe chaotic behavior in an ODE model is three; whereas it can be achieved in a one-dimensional discrete map. It is often th...
