Convergence of a finite volume scheme for nonlocal reaction-diffusion systems modelling an epidemic disease

Numerical Analysis 2008-12-18 v1

Abstract

We analyze a finite volume scheme for nonlocal SIR model, which is a nonlocal reaction-diffusion system modeling an epidemic disease. We establish existence solutions to the finite volume scheme, and show that it converges to a weak solution. The convergence proof is based on deriving series of a priori estimates and using a general LpL^p compactness criterion.
