An incommensurate fractional order model for complex dynamics of viral infection with immunity

Abstract

Abstract This paper deals with an incommensurate fractional order mathematical model for dynamic analysis of viral infection with immunity. The primary focus of the work is to explore stability analysis of this version of incommensurate fractional order model with harmonic mean type incidence function and fractional derivative in Caputo sense. First, well-posed ness of the model has been established by analyzing existence and uniqueness of the solution. In the next section, stability analysis of the equilibrium points has been caried out based on the basic reproduction number. Sensitivity analysis of the threshold parameter have been performed in the following sections. Finally, rigorous numerical simulations have been performed to support the theoretical findings as well as to observe the effect of various fractional orders and incidence function.
