Abstract

Two months earlier, in April 2020, thousands of Chinese soldiers from the People's Liberation Army (PLA) had intruded across the LAC at Galwan and five other places. On May 5, thousands of PLA soldiers crossed the LAC into the Galwan River Valley, scuffling violently with Indian troops as they forced their way five kilometers along the valley to the Galwan's junction with the Shyok River. A large number of PLA soldiers who were hiding in the Galwan River Valley emerged and set upon the Indian soldiers. The lightly armed Indian patrol, about a hundred soldiers strong and led by a senior field commander, a colonel, moved cautiously through the Galwan River Valley. [Extracted from the article]

Abstract

People having extreme idealogies affect the process in a region using fear of terror acts, money power, and the word of mouth communication network to change individuals to their way of thinking. This forces government to divert its limited financial resources for controlling extremism and thus affecting development. In this paper, therefore, a nonlinear mathematical model is proposed to study the dynamics of extremism governed by four dependent variables, namely, number of people in the general population having no extremeideology, number of extreme ideologists, number of isolated ideologists (prisoners), and the cumulative density of government efforts and their interactions. The model is analyzed using the stability theory of differential equations and computer simulation. The analysis shows that if appropriate level of government efforts is applied on extremists, the spread of their ideology can be controlled in the general population. A numerical study of the model is also carried out to investigate the effects of certain parameters on the spread of extremism confirming the analytical results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
