Optimizing vaccine allocation in an age-structured SIR model

Luís Almeida, Romain Ducasse, Elisa Paparelli

We study an optimal control problem where the objective is to find the best vaccine allocation during an epidemic outbreak. The epidemic dynamics is described by an age-structured…

Rolling carpet strategy to reduce mosquito populations in two-dimensional space

Luís Almeida, Alexis Léculier, Nga Nguyen +1

Mosquitoes are vectors of numerous diseases; a strategy to fight the spread of these diseases is to control the vector population. In this article, we focus on the use of the steri…

Feedback stabilization for a spatial-dependent Sterile Insect Technique model with Allee Effect

Kala Agbo Bidi, Luís Almeida, Jean-Michel Coron

This work focuses on feedback control strategies for applying the sterile insect technique (SIT) to eliminate pest populations. The presentation is centered on the case of mosquito…

Analysis of a toy model for optimal crop protection

Luis Almeida, Aymeric Jacob de Cordemoy, Ayman Moussa +1

In this paper we investigate an optimal control problem involving a toy model for the protection on a crop field. Precisely, we consider a protection on a crop field and we want to…

Optimal strategies for Wolbachia mosquito replacement technique: influence of the carrying capacity on spatial releases

Luis Almeida, Jesús Bellver Arnau, Gwenaël Peltier +1

This work is devoted to the mathematical study of an optimization problem regarding control strategies of mosquito population in a heterogeneous environment. Mosquitoes are well-kn…

Vector-borne disease outbreak control via instant releases

Luis Almeida, Jesús Bellver Arnau, Yannick Privat +1

This paper is devoted to the study of optimal release strategies to control vector-borne diseases, such as dengue, Zika, chikungunya and malaria. Two techniques are considered: the…

Global stabilization of a Sterile Insect Technique model by feedback laws

Kala Agbo Bidi, Luís Almeida, Jean-Michel Coron

This work concerns feedback global stabilization of the sterile insect technique dynamics. The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is presently one of the most ecological methods for co…

Steady-state solutions for a reaction-diffusion equation with Robin boundary conditions: Application to the control of dengue vectors

Luís Almeida, Pierre-Alexandre Bliman, Nga Nguyen +1

In this paper, we investigate an initial-boundary-value problem of a reaction-diffusion equation in a bounded domain with a Robin boundary condition and introduce some particular p…

Analysis of the "Rolling carpet" strategy to eradicate an invasive species

Luis Almeida, Alexis Leculier, Nicolas Vauchelet

In order to prevent the propagation of human diseases transmitted by mosquitoes (such as dengue or zika), one possible solution is to act directly on the mosquito population. In th…

Optimal control strategies for the sterile mosquitoes technique

Luís Almeida, Michel Duprez, Yannick Privat +1

Mosquitoes are responsible for the transmission of many diseases such as dengue fever, zika or chigungunya. One way to control the spread of these diseases is to use the sterile in…

Final size and convergence rate for an epidemic in heterogeneous population

Luís Almeida, Pierre-Alexandre Bliman, Grégoire Nadin +2

We formulate a general SEIR epidemic model in a heterogenous population characterized by some trait in a discrete or continuous subset of a space R d. The incubation and recovery r…

The sterile insect technique used as a barrier control against reinfestation

Luis Almeida, Jorge Estrada, Nicolas Vauchelet

The sterile insect technique consists in massive release of sterilized males in the aim to reduce the size of mosquitoes population or even eradicate it. In this work, we investiga…

Minimal cost-time strategies for population replacement using the IIT

Luis Almeida, Jesús Bellver, Michel Duprez +1

Vector control plays a central role in the fight against vector-borne diseases and, in particular, arboviruses. The use of the endosymbiotic bacterium Wolbachia has proven effectiv…

math.AP2019

Optimal releases for population replacement strategies, application to Wolbachia

Luís Almeida, Yannick Privat, Martin Strugarek +1

In this article, we consider a simplified model of time dynamics for a mosquito population subject to the artificial introduction of {\itshape Wolbachia}-infected mosquitoes, in or…

Control strategies on mosquitos population for the fight against arboviruses

Luís Almeida, Michel Duprez, Yannick Privat +1

In the fight against vector-borne arboviruses, an important strategy of control of epidemic consists in controlling the population of vector, \textit{Aedes} mosquitoes in this case…

Oscillatory regimes in a mosquito population model with larval feedback on egg hatching

Martin Strugarek, Laetitia Dufour, Nicolas Vauchelet +3

Understanding mosquitoes life cycle is of great interest presently because of the increasing impact of vector borne diseases in several countries. There is evidence of oscillations…
