In this paper we continue the stability analysis of the model for coinfection with density dependent susceptible population introduced in the 1st part of the paper. We look for coexistence equilibrium points, their stability and dependence on the carrying capacity $K$. Two sets of parameter value are determined, each giving rise to different scenarios for the equilibrium branch parametrized by $K$. In both scenarios the branch includes coexistence points implying that both coinfection and single infection of both diseases can exist together in a stable state. There are no simple explicit expression for these equilibrium points and we will require a more delicate analysis of these points with a new bifurcation technique adapted to such epidemic related problems. The first scenario is described by the branch of stable equilibrium points which includes a section of coexistence points starting at a bifurcation equilibrium point with zero second single infections and finishing at another bifurcation point with zero first single infections. In the second scenario the branch also includes a section of coexistence equilibrium points with the same type of starting point but the branch stays inside the positive cone after this. The coexistence equilibrium points are stable at the start of the section. It stays stable as long as the product of $K$ and the rate $bar gamma$ of coinfection resulting from two single infections is small but, after this it can reach a Hopf bifurcation and periodic orbits will appear.

In this paper we develop an SIR model for coinfection. We discuss how the underlying dynamics depends on the carrying capacity $K$: from a simple dynamics to a more complicated. This can help in understanding of appearance of more complicated dynamics, for example, chaos etc. The density dependent population growth is also considered. It is presented that pathogens can invade in population and their invasion depends on the carrying capacity $K$ which shows that the progression of disease in population depends on carrying capacity. Our approach is based on a bifurcation analysis which allows to generalize considerably the previous Lotka-Volterra type models.
We examine iteration of certain skew-products on the bidisk whose components are rational inner functions, with emphasis on simple maps of the form $Phi(z_1,z_2) = (phi(z_1,z_2), z_2)$. If $phi$ has degree $1$ in the first variable, the dynamics on each horizontal fiber can be described in terms of Mobius transformations but the global dynamics on the $2$-torus exhibit some complexity, encoded in terms of certain $mathbb{T}^2$-symmetric polynomials. We describe the dynamical behavior of such mappings $Phi$ and give criteria for different configurations of fixed point curves and rotation belts in terms of zeros of a related one-variable polynomial.
For Lindblads master equation of open quantum systems with a general quadratic form of the Hamiltonian, the propagator of the density matrix is analytically calculated by using path integral techniques. The time-dependent density matrix is applied to nuclear barrier penetration in heavy ion collisions with inverted oscillator and double-well potentials. The quantum mechanical decoherence of pairs of phase space histories in the propagator is studied and shown that the decoherence depends crucially on the transport coefficients.
The semilocal meta generalized gradient approximation (MGGA) for the exchange-correlation functional of Kohn-Sham (KS) density functional theory can yield accurate ground-state energies simultaneously for atoms, molecules, surfaces, and solids, due to the inclusion of kinetic energy density as an input. We study for the first time the effect and importance of the dependence of MGGA on the kinetic energy density through the dimensionless inhomogeneity parameter, $alpha$, that characterizes the extent of orbital overlap. This leads to a simple and wholly new MGGA exchange functional, which interpolates between the single-orbital regime, where $alpha=0$, and the slowly varying density regime, where $alpha approx 1$, and then extrapolates to $alpha to infty$. When combined with a variant of the Perdew-Burke-Erzerhof (PBE) GGA correlation, the resulting MGGA performs equally well for atoms, molecules, surfaces, and solids.
While many epidemiological models have being proposed to understand and handle COVID-19, too little has been invested to understand how the virus replicates in the human body and potential antiviral can be used to control the replication cycle. In this work, using a control theoretical approach, validated mathematical models of SARS-CoV-2 in humans are properly characterized. A complete analysis of the main dynamic characteristic is developed based on the reproduction number. The equilibrium regions of the system are fully characterized, and the stability of such a regions, formally established. Mathematical analysis highlights critical conditions to decrease monotonically SARS-CoV-2 in the host, such conditions are relevant to tailor future antiviral treatments. Simulation results show the potential benefits of the aforementioned system characterization.
