Viral Infection Model

In this paper, a discrete-time model has been proposed by applying nonstandard finite difference (NSFD) scheme to solve a delayed viral infection model with immune response and general nonlinear incidence. It is shown that the discrete model has equilibria which are exactly the same as those of the original continuous model. Using discrete-time analogue of Lyapunov functionals, the global asymptotic stability of the equilibria of the discrete model is fully determined by the basic reproduction number of the virus and immune response, R0 and R1, with no restriction on the time step size, which implies that the NSFD scheme preserves the qualitative dynamics of the corresponding continuous model.

Intracellular Delays

We have developed a class of viral infection model with cell-to-cell transmission and humoral immune response. The model addresses both immune and intracellular delays. We also constructed Lyapunov functionals to establish the global dynamical properties of the equilibria. Theoretical results indicate that considering only two intracellular delays did not affect the dynamical behavior of the model, but incorporating an immune delay greatly affects the dynamics, i.e. an immune delay may destabilize the immunity-activated equilibrium and lead to Hopf bifurcation, oscillations and stability switches. Our results imply that an immune delay dominates the intracellular delays in the model. We also investigated the direction of the Hopf bifurcation and the stability of the periodic solutions by applying normal form and center manifold theory, and investigated the existence of global Hopf bifurcation by regarding the immune delay as a bifurcation parameter. Numerical simulations are carried out to support the analytical conclusions.

Viral Infection Model

In this paper, we propose an HBV viral infection model with continuous age structure and nonlinear incidence rate. Asymptotic smoothness of the semi-flow generated by the model is studied. Then we caculate the basic reproduction number and prove that it is a sharp threshold determining whether the infection dies out or not. We give a rigorous mathematical analysis on uniform persistence by reformulating the system as a system of Volterra integral equations. The global dynamics of the model is established by using suitable Lyapunov functionals and LaSalle's invariance principle. We further investigate the global behaviors of the HBV viral infection model with saturation incidence through numerical simulations.

Theoretical Results

This paper is concerned with the dynamics of a viral infection model with diffusion under the assumption that the immune response is retarded. A time delay is incorporated into the model described the delayed immune response after viral infection. Based upon a stability analysis, we demonstrate that the appearance, or the absence, of spatial patterns is determined by the delay under some conditions. Moreover, the spatial patterns occurs as a consequence of Hopf bifurcation. By applying the normal form and the center manifold theory, the direction as well as the stability of the Hopf bifurcation is explored. In addition, a series of numerical simulations are performed to illustrate our theoretical results.
