Global dynamics on a class of age-infection structured cholera model with immigration

This paper is concerned with a class of age-structured cholera model with general infection rates. We first explore the existence and uniqueness, dissipativeness and persistence of the solutions, and the existence of the global attractor by verifying the asymptotical smoothness of the orbits. We then give mathematical analysis on the existence and local stability of the positive equilibrium. Based on the preparation, we further investigate the global behavior of the cholera infection model. Corresponding numerical simulations have been presented. Our results improve and generalize some known results on cholera models.
