A nonlinear delayed model for the immune response in the presence of viral mutation

In this paper we consider a delayed nonlinear model of the dynamics of the immune system against a viral infection that contains wild-type virus and one mutant. A finite response time of the immune system was considered in order which leads to sustained oscillatory behavior as well as chaotic behavior, triggered by the presence of delays. We present a thoroughly numeric analysis and some analytical results.
