Abstract

In this paper, a non-standard finite difference (NSFD) scheme for a delayed diffusive hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection model with intracellular HBV DNA-containing capsids is proposed. Dynamic consistency of this NSFD scheme is achieved by showing that the scheme preserves the non-negativity and boundedness of the solutions and the global stability of the homogeneous steady states of the corresponding continuous model without any restriction on spatial and temporal grid sizes. We prove the global stability of the steady states by constructing suitable discrete Lyapunov functions.
