Dynamics of a discrete SIRD model based on Lotka-Volterra mappings.

In the paper considers a discrete model of SIRD, constructed on the basis of discrete Lotka-Volterra dynamical systems operating in a three-dimensional simplex with a degenerate skew-symmetric matrix. The sets of ignition and the end of the epidemic have been found, and the sets where the population is dying out have been found. The paper also provides a numerical analysis of the proposed model.
