Asymptotic Properties of a Hepatitis B Virus Infection Model with Time Delay

A hepatitis B virus infection model with time delay is discussed. By analyzing the corresponding characteristic equations, the local stability of each of the feasible equilibria of the model is studied. By using comparison arguments, it is proved that if the basic reproduction ratio is less than uni...
