ABSTRACT

Mathematical biology, nowadays, is a well-known field, which is growing fast, being an interdisciplinary subject and undoubtedly, has been one of the most appealing applications of mathematics. The complexity of the biological sciences makes the interdisciplinary involvement essential. For the mathematicians, biology opens up numerous new branches, while, for the biologists, mathematical modeling offers another powerful research tool. Further, population biology and epidemiology is a fascinating domain of study in the field of biomathematics for today’s researchers. The increasing study of realistic and practically useful mathematical models in population dynamics and epidemics is a reflection of their use in helping to understand the dynamic processes involved therein and in making practical predictions [1].
