  • Abstract
    In this paper, an SI epidemic model with feedback controls is first proposed. By constructing a suitable Lyapunov function, global stability of the disease-free equilibrium and the endemic equilibrium of the model is investigated. The results we obtained show that by choosing suitable values of feedback control variables, we can make the disease endemic or extinct. In other words, feedback control variables play an important role in dealing with the disease. An example is presented to verify our main results.
