Summary: | In this paper, a fractional-order eco-epidemiological model with two disease strains in the predator population incorporating harvesting is formulated and analyzed. The model assumes that the population is divided into a prey population, a susceptible predator population, a predator population infected by the first disease, and a predator population infected by the second disease. A mathematical analysis and numerical simulations are performed to explain the dynamics and properties of the proposed fractional-order eco-epidemiological model. The positivity, boundedness, existence, and uniqueness of the solutions are examined. The basic reproduction number and some sufficient conditions for the existence of four equilibrium points are obtained. In addition, some sufficient conditions are proposed to ensure the local and global asymptotic stability of the equilibrium points. Theoretical results are illustrated through numerical simulations, which also highlight the effect of the fractional order. |
