A mathematical model describing viral dynamics in the presence of the latently infected cells and the cytotoxic T-lymphocytes cells (CTL), taking into consideration the spatial mobility of free viruses, is presented and studied. The model includes five nonlinear differential equations describing the interaction among the uninfected cells, the latently infected cells, the actively infected cells, the free viruses, and the cellular immune response. First, we establish the existence, positivity, and boundedness for the suggested diffusion model. Moreover, we prove the global stability of each steady state by constructing some suitable Lyapunov functionals. Finally, we validated our theoretical results by numerical simulations for each case.

This paper studies the global dynamics of a general pathogenic infection model with two ways of infections. The effect of antibody immune response is analyzed. We incorporate three discrete time delays and both latently infected cells and actively infected cells. The infection rate and production and clearance/death rates of the cells and pathogens are given by general functions. We determine two threshold parameters to investigate the global stability of three equilibria. We use Lyapunov method to establish the global stability. We support our theoretical results by numerical simulations.

In this paper, we study the global dynamics of a stochastic viral infection model with humoral immunity and Holling type II response functions. The existence and uniqueness of non-negative global solutions are derived. Stationary ergodic distribution of positive solutions is investigated. The solution fluctuates around the equilibrium of the deterministic case, resulting in the disease persisting stochastically. The extinction conditions are also determined. To verify the accuracy of the results, numerical simulations were carried out using the Euler–Maruyama scheme. White noise’s intensity plays a key role in treating viral infectious diseases. The small intensity of white noises can maintain the existence of a stationary distribution, while the large intensity of white noises is beneficial to the extinction of the virus.

<abstract><p>In the literature, several HTLV-I and HIV single infections models with spatial dependence have been developed and analyzed. However, modeling HTLV/HIV dual infection with diffusion has not been studied. In this work we derive and investigate a PDE model that describes the dynamics of HTLV/HIV dual infection taking into account the mobility of viruses and cells. The model includes the effect of Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) immunity. Although HTLV-I and HIV primarily target the same host, CD$ 4^{+} $T cells, via infected-to-cell (ITC) contact, however the HIV can also be transmitted through free-to-cell (FTC) contact. Moreover, HTLV-I has a vertical transmission through mitosis of active HTLV-infected cells. The well-posedness of solutions, including the existence of global solutions and the boundedness, is justified. We derive eight threshold parameters which govern the existence and stability of the eight steady states of the model. We study the global stability of all steady states based on the construction of suitable Lyapunov functions and usage of Lyapunov-LaSalle asymptotic stability theorem. Lastly, numerical simulations are carried out in order to verify the validity of our theoretical results.</p></abstract>

In this paper, we study the dynamics of a viral infection model formulated by five fractional differential equations (FDEs) to describe the interactions between host cells, virus, and humoral immunity presented by antibodies. The infection transmission process is modeled by Hattaf-Yousfi functional response which covers several forms of incidence rate existing in the literature. We first show that the model is mathematically and biologically well-posed. By constructing suitable Lyapunov functionals, the global stability of equilibria is established and characterized by two threshold parameters. Finally, some numerical simulations are presented to illustrate our theoretical analysis.

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.

During the past eras, many mathematicians have paid their attentions to model the dynamics of dengue virus (DENV) infection but without taking into account the mobility of the cells and DENV particles. In this study, we develop and investigate a partial differential equations (PDEs) model that describes the dynamics of secondary DENV infection taking into account the spatial mobility of DENV particles and cells. The model includes five nonlinear PDEs describing the interaction among the target cells, DENV-infected cells, DENV particles, heterologous antibodies, and homologous antibodies. In the beginning, the well-posedness of solutions, including the existence of global solutions and the boundedness, is justified. We derive three threshold parameters which govern the existence and stability of the four equilibria of the model. We study the global stability of all equilibria based on the construction of suitable Lyapunov functions and usage of Lyapunov–LaSalle’s invariance principle (LLIP). Last, numerical simulations are carried out in order to verify the validity of our theoretical results.

In this paper, we propose a fractional-order viral infection model, which includes latent infection, a Holling type II response function, and a time-delay representing viral production. Based on the characteristic equations for the model, certain sufficient conditions guarantee local asymptotic stability of infection-free and interior steady states. Whenever the time-delay crosses its critical value (threshold parameter), a Hopf bifurcation occurs. Furthermore, we use LaSalle’s invariance principle and Lyapunov functions to examine global stability for infection-free and interior steady states. Our results are illustrated by numerical simulations.

In this paper, the sharp threshold properties of a (2n + 1)-dimensional delayed viral infection model are investigated. This model combines with n classes of uninfected target cells, n classes of infected cells and nonlinear incidence rate h(x, v). Two kinds of distributed time delays are incorporated into the model to describe the time needed for infection of uninfected target cells and virus replication. Under certain conditions, it is shown that the basic reproduction number is a threshold parameter for the existence of the equilibria, uniform persistence, as well as for global stability of the equilibria of the model.

In this paper, the dynamical behaviors for a five-dimensional virus infection model with Latently Infected Cells and Beddington–DeAngelis incidence are investigated. In the model, four delays which denote the latently infected delay, the intracellular delay, virus production period and CTL response delay are considered. We define the basic reproductive number and the CTL immune reproductive number. By using Lyapunov functionals, LaSalle’s invariance principle and linearization method, the threshold conditions on the stability of each equilibrium are established. It is proved that when the basic reproductive number is less than or equal to unity, the infection-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable; when the CTL immune reproductive number is less than or equal to unity and the basic reproductive number is greater than unity, the immune-free infection equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable; when the CTL immune reproductive number is greater than unity and immune response delay is equal to zero, the immune infection equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. The results show that immune response delay may destabilize the steady state of infection and lead to Hopf bifurcation. The existence of the Hopf bifurcation is discussed by using immune response delay as a bifurcation parameter. Numerical simulations are carried out to justify the analytical results.
