Permanence and global stability of a class of discrete epidemic models

In this paper we investigate the permanence of a system and give a sufficient condition for the endemic equilibrium to be globally asymptotically stable, which are the remaining problems in our previous paper (G. Izzo, Y. Muroya, A. Vecchio, A general discrete time model of population dynamics in the presence of an infection, Discrete Dyn. Nat. Soc. (2009), Article ID 143019, 15 pages. doi:10.1155/2009/143019.)
