    Abstract: We study the equilibrium point (n*, E*) of the fishery model with Allee effect in its population growth dynamics. The Allee effect is considered to be induced by the harvesting of the fish stock. The aggregated model is a set of two differential equations with the fish population and harvesting effort as the dependent variables, with the market pri... Show More

    Abstract: Many mathematical models developed through differential equations to describe the age dependent infectiousness of diseases, face the complexity of modelling heterogenic behavior of transmission. There, many of the cases assume the host to stay in the same risk class regardless of the age of the hosts. The proposed model mimics the infectiousness ac... Show More
