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.

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, 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.

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.

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.
