CONTROLLABILITY OF A STOCHASTIC MODEL OF LYMPHATIC FILARIASIS
Ragnimwendé SAWADOGO, Victorien KONANE
This paper analyzes the controllability of a stochastic model of lymphatic filariasis. Like other
diseases, the spread of lymphatic filariasis is subject to a degree of randomness due to fluctuations in
the natural environment. This provides an opportunity to formulate a mathematical model of lymphatic
filariasis that accounts for as much e(...)
