Hopf bifurcation and global exponential stability of an epidemiological smoking model with time delay.

There are many harmful effects of smoking. It not only engulfs the health and life of smokers, but also pollutes the air, endangers the life and health of others, and brings a heavy burden to public health. To this end, a delayed smoking model including potential smokers, occasional smokers, smokers, temporary quitters, permanent quitters and smokers with some illness, is investigated in the present paper. Firstly, local stability and existence of Hopf bifurcation of the model is conducted. Secondly, global exponential stability is explored. Lastly, we numerically simulate the correctness of the obtained theoretical results in the paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
