Abstract

This paper explores a mathematical model for analyzing the dynamics of banditry and terrorism, focusing on equilibrium states and stability conditions. Key concepts include the reproduction number Rb, which serves as a threshold parameter indicating the potential for spread or decline of these activities. The study finds that a banditry-free equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable when Rb < 1, suggesting that the activities will decline over time. In contrast, Rb>0 indicates the possibility of globally stable coexistence equilibrium, where banditry and terrorism persist at endemic levels. The model also identifies invariant regions, ensuring that the system's trajectories remain within certain bounds, and guarantees unique and positive solutions, essential for real-world applicability. These findings provide critical insights for developing comprehensive strategies to mitigate banditry and terrorism, highlighting the importance of addressing both root causes and immediate symptoms
