Pantograph, the technological successor of trolley poles, is an overhead current collector of electric bus, electric trains, and trams. In this work, we consider the discrete fractional pantograph equation of the form Δ*β[k](t)=wt+β,k(t+β),k(λ(t+β)), with condition k(0)=p[k] for t∈N1−β, 0<β≤1, λ∈(0,1) and investigate the properties of asymptotic stability of solutions. We will prove the main results by the aid of Krasnoselskii’s and generalized Banach fixed point theorems. Examples involving algorithms and illustrated graphs are presented to demonstrate the validity of our theoretical findings.

Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever is a common disease between humans and animals that is transmitted to humans through infected ticks, contact with infected animals, and infected humans. In this paper, we present a boxed model for the transmission of Crimean-Congo fever virus. With the help of the fixed-point theory, our proposed system model is investigated in detail to prove its unique solution. Given that the Caputo fractional-order derivative preserves the system’s historical memory, we use this fractional derivative in our modeling. The equilibrium points of the proposed system and their stability conditions are determined. Using the Euler method for the Caputo fractional-order derivative, we calculate the approximate solutions of the fractional system, and then, we present a numerical simulation for the transmission of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever.

In this paper, we study a type of nonlinear hybrid Δ-difference equations of fractional-order. The main objective is to establish some stability criteria including the Ulam–Hyers stability, generalized Ulam–Hyers stability together with the Mittag-Leffler–Ulam–Hyers stability for the addressed problem. Prior to the stabilization processes, solvability criteria for the existence and uniqueness of solutions are considered. For this purpose, a hybrid fixed point theorem for triple operators and the Banach contraction mapping principle are applied, respectively. For the sake of illustrating the practical impact of the proposed theoretical criteria, we finish the paper with particular examples.
