We formulate and study a mathematical model for the propagation of hantavirus infection in the mouse population. This model includes seasonality, incubation period, direct transmission (contacts between individuals) and indirect transmission (through the environment). For the time-periodic model, the basic reproduction number

R_{0}

$R_0$ is defined as the spectral radius of the next generation operator. Then, we show the virus is uniformly persistent when

R_{0} > 1

$R_0>1$ while tends to die out if

R_{0} < 1

$R_0 < 1$ . When there is no seasonality, that is, all coefficients are constants, we obtain the explicit expression for the basic reproduction number

R_{0}

$\mathbf{{R}_0}$ , such that if

R_{0} < 1

$\mathbf{{R}_0} < 1$ , then the virus-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable, but if

R_{0} > 1

$\mathbf{{R}_0}>1$ , the endemic equilibrium is globally attractive. Numerical simulations indicate that prolonging the incubation period may be helpful in the virus control. Some sensitivity analysis of

R_{0}

$R_0$ is performed.

Abstract

R_{0}

$R_0$ is defined as the spectral radius of the next generation operator. Then, we show the virus is uniformly persistent when

R_{0} > 1

$R_0>1$ while tends to die out if

R_{0} < 1

$R_0 < 1$ . When there is no seasonality, that is, all coefficients are constants, we obtain the explicit expression for the basic reproduction number

R_{0}

$\mathbf{{R}_0}$ , such that if

R_{0} < 1

$\mathbf{{R}_0} < 1$ , then the virus-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable, but if

R_{0} > 1

R_{0}

$R_0$ is performed.
