Abstract

In this paper we analyze the global asymptotic stability of the trivial solution for a multi-stage maturity acute myeloid leukemia model. By employing the positivity of the corresponding nonlinear time-delay model, where the nonlinearity is locally Lipschitz, we establish the global exponential stability under the same conditions that are necessary for the local exponential stability. The result is derived for the multi-stage case via a novel construction of linear Lyapunov functionals. In a simpler model of hematopoiesis (without fast self-renewal) our conditions guarantee also global exponential stability with a given decay rate. Moreover, in this simpler case the analysis of the PDE model is presented via novel Lyapunov functionals for the transport equations.
