Abstract
We study the global dynamics of an HIV infection model describing the interaction of the
HIV with CD4(+) T cells and macrophages. The incidence rate of virus infection and the
growth rate of the uninfected CD4(+) T cells and macrophages are given by general
functions. We have incorporated two types of distributed delays into the model to account
for the time delay between the time the uninfected cells are contacted by the virus particle
and the time for the emission of infectious (matures) virus particles. We have established
a set of conditions which are sufficient for the global stability of the steady states of the
model. Using Lyapunov functionals and LaSalle's invariant principle, we have proven that
if the basic reproduction number R-0 is less than or equal to unity, then the uninfected
steady state is globally asymptotically stable (GAS), and if the infected steady state
exists, then it is GAS.
