The technique of sterile mosquitoes plays an important role in the control of mosquito-borne diseases such as malaria, dengue, yellow fever, west Nile, and Zika. To explore the interactive dynamics between the wild and sterile mosquitoes, we formulate a delayed mosquito population suppression model with constant releases of sterile mosquitoes. Through the analysis of global dynamics of solutions of the model, we determine a threshold value of the release rate such that if the release threshold is exceeded, then the wild mosquito population will be eventually suppressed, whereas when the release rate is less than the threshold, the wild and sterile mosquitoes coexist and the model exhibits a complicated feature. We also obtain theoretical results including a sufficient and necessary condition for the global asymptotic stability of the zero solution. We provide numerical examples to demonstrate our results and give brief discussions about our findings.

Keywords: Global asymptotic stability, mosquito population suppression, sterile mosquitoes, delay differential equation, Hopf bifurcation.

Figure 1.  Suppose $t_0 = 0$ and model parameters of (6) given in (15). FIGURE 1 (A) is the graph of stability switch in terms of time delays for model (6) for $\tau\in(0, \overline{\tau})$, such that equilibrium $S^{(1)}_\nu$ is asymptotically stable for $\tau\in (0, \tau_1)\cup(\tau_4, \overline{\tau})$, and unstable for $\tau\in(\tau_1, \tau_4)$. Given that $\hat{\tau}\approx 25.2573 > 2\sqrt{3}\pi/(9\mu_1)\approx 20.1533$, we find a bifurcation at $\tau^{**} = \tau_4\approx 25.9708\in (\hat{\tau}, \overline{\tau})$ such that $S^{(1)}_\nu$ is asymptotically stable for $\tau\in (\hat{\tau}, \tau^{**})$, and unstable for $\tau\in (r_0^{**}, \overline{\tau})$, as shown in FIGURE 1 (B)

Figure 2.  Stability of the positive equilibrium $S^{(1)}_\nu$ in model (6) when $\hat{\tau} < \tau < \overline{\tau}$. Suppose $t_0 = 0$ and model parameters are given in (15). Then $\hat{\tau}\approx 25.2573$, and $\overline{\tau}\approx 28.1341$. We find a bifurcation point $\tau^{**}\approx 25.9708\in (\hat{\tau}, \overline{\tau})$. When $\tau\in(\hat{\tau}, \tau^{**})$, equilibrium $S^{(1)}_\nu$ is unstable as shown in FIGURE 2 (A). When $\tau\in(\tau^{**}, \overline{\tau})$, equilibrium $S^{(1)}_\nu$ is asymptotically stable as shown in FIGURE 2 (B)

Figure 3.  Simulations for the case of $0 < b < b^*$. Parameters are given in (28) such that the release threshold $b^*\approx 28.81$ and we set $b = 20$. There exist two positive equilibria $S_v^- = 65.5632$ and $S_v^{+} = 227.77012$ where $S_v^{-}$ is unstable and $S_v^{+}$ is locally asymptotically stable. System (3) exhibits a bi-stability phenomenon followed from Theorem 4.4. FIGURE 3 (A) is the phase diagram of system (3), and FIGURE 3 (B) shows the dynamics of the wild mosquito population of system (3) where solutions approach either the locally asymptotically stable zero solution or $S_v^+$ depending on their initial values

Figure 4.  Simulations for the case of $b > b^*$. Parameters are given in (28) such that the release threshold $b^*\approx 28.81$ and we set $b = 35$ greater than $b^*$. Then the zero equilibrium $N_0$ is globally asymptotically stable, which indicates that the wild mosquito population is eventually eradicated. FIGURE 4 (A) is the phase diagram of system (3), and FIGURE 4 (B) illustrates the dynamics of the wild mosquito population of system (3) where all solutions eventually approach zero

Figure 5.  Comparisons of the effects of $b$ on the suppression efficiency when $b > b^*$. Here parameters are given in (28). We choose four different $b$: 50, 70, 90,130, all of which are larger than the threshold release rate $b^*\approx 28.81$. It is clear that the efficiency is improved as $b$ increased
