Abstract
- In this paper, we propose a six-dimensional nonlinear system of differential equations for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) including the B-cell functions with a general nonlinear incidence rate. The compartment of infected cells was subdivided into three classes representing the latently infected cells, the short-lived productively infected cells, and the long-lived productively infected cells. The basic reproduction number was established, and the local and global stability of the equilibria of the model were studied. A sensitivity analysis with respect to the model parameters was undertaken. Based on this study, an optimal strategy is proposed to decrease the number of infected cells. Finally, some numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the theoretical findings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
