A malaria model with Caputo-Fabrizio and Atangana-Baleanu derivatives

International Journal of Modeling, Simulation, and Scientific Computing, Volume 12, No. 2, Article 2150013, Year 2021

In this paper, we study two fractional models in the Caputo-Fabrizio sense and Atangana-Baleanu sense, in which the effects of malaria infection on mosquito biting behavior and attractiveness of humans are considered. Using Lyapunov theory, we prove the global asymptotic stability of the unique endemic equilibrium of the integer-order model, and the fractional models, whenever the basic reproduction number R0 is greater than one. By using fixed point theory, we prove existence, and conditions of the uniqueness of solutions, as well as the stability and convergence of numerical schemes. Numerical simulations for both models, using fractional Euler method and Adams-Bashforth method, respectively, are provided to confirm the effectiveness of used approximation methods for different values of the fractional-order γ.
