Abstract

The current study represents a survey on several modifications of compartment epidemic models with continuous and impulse control policies. The main contribution of the survey is the modification of the classical Susceptible Infected Recovered (SIR) model with the assumption that two types of viruses are circulating in the population at the same time. Moreover, we also take into consideration the network structure of the initial population in two-virus SIIR models and estimate the effectiveness of protection measures over complex networks. In each model, the optimal control problem has been formalized to minimize the costs of the virus spreading and find optimal continuous and impulse antivirus controllers. All theoretical results are corroborated by a large number of numerical simulations.
