A new epidemic model of sexually transmittable diseases: a fractional numerical approach
摘要
This study aims at investigating the dynamics of sexually transmitted infectious disease (STID), which is serious health concern. In so doing, the integer order STID model is progressed in to the time-delayed non-integer order STID model by introducing the Caputo fractional derivatives in place of integer order derivatives and including the delay factors in the susceptible and infectious compartments. Moreover, unique existence of the solution for the underlying model is ensured by establishing some benchmark results. Likewise, the positivity and boundedness of the solutions for the projected model is explored. The basic reproduction number is
