Global dynamics for a TB transmission model with age-structure and delay

This paper deals with the global dynamics of a tuberculosis (TB) model with age-structure and delay. We perform some rigorous analyses for the model, including presenting an explicit formula for the basic reproduction number of the model, addressing the persistence of the solution semi-flow and the existence of the global attractor. Based on these analyses, we establish some results on stability and instability of equilibrium of the system. Finally, some numerical examples are provided to illustrate our obtained results.
