SEIR epidemic model for COVID-19 transmission by Caputo derivative of fractional order

Abstract: We provide a SEIR epidemic model for the spread of COVID-19 using the Caputo fractional derivative. The feasibility region of the system and equilibrium points are calculated and the stability of the equilibrium points is investigated. We prove the existence of a unique solution for the model by using fixed point theory. Using the fractional Euler method, we get an approximate solution to the model. To predict the transmission of COVID-19 in Iran and in the world, we provide a numerical simulation based on rea… Show more

“…In the epidemiological diseases related to viruses, mathematical modelling is very useful in studying the transmission of the disease among distinct groups because it help in managing the disease. In this section of the paper, we suggest a paradigm for COVID-19 epidemic utilizing fractional differential equations as a generalization of the SEIR model [63] . The worldwide association of health (WHO) classifies the infected people into two types: one class with no symptoms and the other type has symptoms and both of them can transfer the virus to others.…”
