Abstract
In this study, we build a stochastic SIR epidemic model with vertical infection and nonlinear incidence. The influence of the fluctuation of disease transmission parameters and state variables on the dynamic behaviors of the system is the focus of our study. Through the theoretical analysis, we obtain that there exists a unique global positive solution for any positive initial value. A threshold
is given. When
, the diseases can be extincted with probability one. When
, we construct a stochastic Lyapunov function to prove that the system exists an ergodic stationary distribution, which means that the disease will persist. Then, we obtain the conditions that the solution of the stochastic model fluctuates widely near the equilibria of the corresponding deterministic model. Finally, the correctness of the results is verified by numerical simulation. It is further found that the fluctuation of disease transmission parameters and infected individuals with the environment can reduce the threshold of disease outbreak, while the fluctuation of susceptible and recovered individuals has a little effect on the dynamic behavior of the system. Therefore, we can make the disease extinct by adjusting the appropriate random disturbance.
