Abstract
The stochastic SIS epidemic model in a random environment. In a random environment that is a two-state continuous-time Markov chain, the mean time to extinction of the stochastic SIS epidemic model grows in the supercritical case exponentially with respect to the population size if the two states are favorable, and like a power law if one state is favorable while the other is unfavorable.Entities:
