Abstract
This study presents a fractional mathematical model based on nonlinear Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) of fractional variable-order derivatives for the host populations experiencing transmission and evolution of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic. Five host population groups have been considered, the Susceptible, Exposed, Infected, Recovered, and Deceased (SEIRD). The new model, not introduced before in its current formulation, is governed by nonlinear PDEs with fractional variable-order derivatives. As a result, the proposed model is not compared with other models or real scenarios. The advantage of the proposed fractional partial derivatives of variable orders is that they can model the rate of change of subpopulation for the proposed model. As an efficient tool to obtain the solution of the proposed model, a modified analytical technique based on the homotopy and Adomian decomposition methods is introduced. Then again, the present study is general and is applicable to a host population in any country.
