An in-host HIV-1 infection model incorporating quiescent and activated CD4+ T cells as well as CTL response

作者:

Highlights:

• A model describing the dynamics of quiescent and activated CD4+ T cells in acute HIV-1 infection.

• Forward bifurcation with the aid of Brouwer degree theory and asymptotic expansions.

• Application aspects based on local sensitivity of the basic reproduction ratio.

• Numerical bifurcation analysis around virus-free states.

• Time scale separation leading to the existence of canards.
