We impose no restrictions on the linearization at the fixed point except invertibility, allowing higher multiplicities. It is shown that the problem reduces to a similar problem for a reduced family of diffeomorphisms, which is itself reversible, but also has an additional q -symmetry. The reversibility in combination with the q -symmetry translates to a q -symmetry for the problem, which allows to write down the bifurcation equations. Moreover, the reduced family can be calculated up to any order by a normal form reduction on the original system. The method of proof combines normal forms with the Lyapunov–Schmidt method, and makes repetitive use of the Implicit Function Theorem. As an application we analyze the branching of periodic points near a fixed point in a family of reversible mappings, when for a critical value of the parameters the linearization at the fixed point has either a pair of simple purely imaginary eigenvalues that are roots of unity or a pair of non-semisimple purely imaginary eigenvalues that are roots of unity with algebraic multiplicity 2 and geometric multiplicity 1.

The model admits a unique endemic equilibrium if and only if the basic reproduction number R 0 exceeds one, while the trivial equilibrium and the disease-free equilibrium always exist. First we show that the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if and only if R 0 ≤ 1. Second we show that the model is permanent and it has a unique endemic equilibrium if and only if R 0 > 1. Moreover, using a threshold parameter R 0 characterized by the nonlinear incidence function, we establish that the endemic equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable for 1 < R 0 ≤ R 0 and it loses stability as the length of the delay increases past a critical value for 1 < R 0 < R 0 . Our result is an extension of the stability results in [J-J. Wang, J-Z. Zhang, Z. Jin, Analysis of an SIR model with bilinear incidence rate, Nonl. Anal. RWA. 11 (2009RWA. 11 ( ) 2390RWA. 11 ( -2402.
