Analytic Solution to a Virus Infection Model

Article Preview

Abstract:

A functional analytic method was developed by E.K.Ifantis in 1987 to prove that certain non-linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) have a unique power series solution which converges absolutely in a specified disc of the complex plane. In this paper, we first applied this method to certain systems of two non-linear ordinary differential equations. We proved that the power series solutions can be determined by some recurrence relations which depend on the parameters of the equations and the initial conditions. Then, we found a method to extend the range of the converge bound. At last, we applied the functional analytic method to the resistant virus infection model to obtain a power series solution and compared our solution with the numerical solution obtained by the Runge-Kutta method using the software Matlab (Version 7.0.1).
