  • Abstract
    A mathematical model with a time delay of tumors attacked by the immune system is studied. Mathematical analyses of the model equations with regard to boundedness of solutions, nature of equilibra, and global stability are analyzed. The conditions under which the equilibrium is globally stable are given and the criteria for existence of bifurcation will be shown.
