The Susceptible-Infective-Susceptible (SIS) epidemic models provide essential framework in studying the dynamics of disease transmission in the field of theoretical epidemiology. To understand the dynamics of the disease spread in a spatially heterogeneous environment in which the individuals are subject to a random movement, a SIS epidemic reaction-diffusion model with Neumann (or no-flux) boundary condition is investigated. The authors study two modified SIS diffusion models with the Dirichlet boundary condition that reflects a hostile environment in the boundary. The mathematical analysis is robust enough. The reproductive number which defines a threshold for disease extinction or persistence is derived. Partial result on the global stability of the endemic equilibrium is also obtained.
