In this paper, we report some results on persistence in two structured population models: a chronic- age-structured epidemic model and an age-duration-structured epidemic model. Regarding these models, we observe that the system is uniformly strongly persistent, which means, roughly speaking, that the proportion of infected subpopulation is bounded away from 0 and the bound does not depend on the initial data after a sufficient long time, if the basic reproduction ratio is larger than one. We derive this by adopting Thieme's technique, which requires some conditions about positivity and compactness. Although the compactness condition is rather difficult to show in general infinite-dimensional function spaces, we can apply Frechet-Kolmogorov L1-compactness criteria to our models. The two examples that we study illuminate a useful method to show persistence in structured population models. |
