ABSTRACT: In this paper, an epidemic SIS model with nonlinear
infectivity on heterogeneous networks and time delays is investigated. The
oscillatory behavior of the solutions is studied. Two sufficient conditions are provided to guarantee the oscillatory behavior for the
solutions. Some computer simulations are demonstrated.
