STUDY ON THE DYNAMICS OF A PIECEWISE TUMOR–IMMUNE INTERACTION MODEL

Abstract

Many approaches have been proposed in recent decades to represent the behaviors of certain complicated global problems appearing in a variety of academic domains. One of these issues is the multi-step behavior that some situations exhibit. Abdon and Seda devised new operators known as “piecewise operators” to deal with such problems. This paper presents the dynamics of the tumor–immune–vitamins model in the sense of a piecewise derivative. The piecewise operator considered here is composed of classical and Caputo operators. The existence and uniqueness of the solution with a piecewise derivative are presented with the aid of fixed point results. With the help of the Newton polynomial, a numerical scheme is presented for the examined model. The attained results are visualized through simulations for different fractional orders.
