We introduce fractional order into an HIV model. We considerthe effect of viral diversity on the human immune system with frequency dependent rate of proliferation of cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) and rate ofelimination of infected cells by CTLs, based on a fractional-order differentialequation model. For the one-virus model, our analysis shows that the interiorequilibrium which is unstable in the classical integer-order model can becomeasymptotically stable in our fractional-order model and numerical simulationsconfirm this. We also present simulation results of the chaotic behaviors produced from the fractional-order HIV model with viral diversity by using anAdams-type predictor-corrector method
