Research Abstract |
We obtained some results on qualitative properties of differential equation models describing the dynamics of infectious agents in a host. Here we dealt with the interaction among viruses, target cells, infected cells, and immunity. We showed for some models that the interior equilibrium, which corresponds to the infected state, is, under some conditions, globally asymptotically stable. In this connection, we considered some mathematical models of immunity, and established some properties of systems of differential equations describing autoimmunity.
