Stability analysis of fractional epidemic model for two infected classes incorporating hospitalization impact

Abstract

This article presents an epidemic disease propagation mathematical model in fractional order. The epidemiological characteristics are presented based on the susceptible, exposed, unknown infected, known infected, hospitalized population and the population in the secure zone. Both the disease endemic equilibrium and the disease-free equilibrium's stability characteristics have been examined using the basic reproduction number. Variation of basic reproduction number based on the different sensitive parameters has been discussed. It has been disputed whether the fractional model provides a uniform, reliable solution. An analysis of the time history of unknown and known infected populations, hospitalized populations and recovered populations at different values of various sensitive parameters has been carried out. To support the key theoretical conclusions, some numerical simulations are completed using MATLAB. The impact of various populations on the propagation of the illness has also been investigated, as well as how specific state variables change over time for various fractional order values.
