We present a fractional-order model for the COVID-19 transmission with Caputo–Fabrizio derivative. Using the homotopy analysis transform method (HATM), which combines the method of homotopy analysis and Laplace transform, we solve the problem and give approximate solution in convergent series. We prove the existence of a unique solution and the stability of the iteration approach by using fixed point theory. We also present numerical results to simulate virus transmission and compare the results with those of the Caputo derivative. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The key purpose of the present work is to examine a fractional giving up smoking model pertaining to a new fractional derivative with non-singular kernel. The numerical simulations are conducted with the aid of an iterative technique. The existence of the solution is discussed by employing the fixed point postulate, and the uniqueness of the solution is also proved. The effect of various parameters is shown graphically. The numerical results for the smoking model associated with the new fractional derivative are compared with numerical results for a smoking model pertaining to the standard derivative and Caputo fractional derivative.
