Abstract
We consider a cell population subject to a parasite infection. Cells divide at a constant rate and, at division, share the parasites they contain between their two daughter cells. The sharing may be asymmetric, and its law may depend on the number of parasites in the mother. Cells die at a rate which may depend on the number of parasites they carry, and are also killed when this number explodes. We study the survival of the cell population as well as the mean number of parasites in the cells, and focus on the role of the parasites partitioning kernel at division.
