Popis: | Remarks on positivity of certain vector-valued functions are applied to the SEIRS equations for infectious disease and to a nonlinear system recently introduced in connection with cell biology by Dr. Dennis Thron. In both cases the formerly constant coefficients are replaced by functions of time, and in both cases we give conditions under which the solutions exist globally and are positive. For the nonautonomous SEIRS equations conditions are also given which ensure that the limiting population as t →∞ contains susceptible individuals only, hence is disease-free. |
