COVID-19 pandemic in India: a mathematical model study.

Abstract: The present novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection has created a global emergency situation by spreading all over the world in a large scale within very short time period. But there is no vaccine, anti-viral medicine for such infection. So at this moment, a major worldwide problem is that how we can control this pandemic. On the other hand, India is high population density country, where the coronavirus infection disease (COVID-19) has started from 1 March 2020. Due to high population density, human to human social contact rate is very high in India. So controlling pandemic COVID-19 in early stage is very urgent and challenging problem of India. Mathematical models are employed to study the disease dynamics, identify the influential parameters and access the proper prevention strategies for reduction outbreak size. In this work, we have formulated a deterministic compartmental model to study the spreading of COVID-19 and estimated the model parameters by fitting the model with reported data of ongoing pandemic in India. Sensitivity analysis has been done to identify the influential model parameters. The basic reproduction number has been estimated from actual data and the effective basic reproduction number has been studied on the basis of reported cases. Some effective preventive measures and their impact have also been studied. Prediction are given on the future trends of the virus transmission under some control measures. Finally, the positive measures to control the disease have been summarized in the conclusion section.

Qualitative Analysis and Optimal Control Strategy of an SIR Model with Saturated Incidence and Treatment

Abstract: This paper deals with an SIR model with saturated incidence rate affected by inhibitory effect and saturated treatment function. Two control functions have been used, one for vaccinating the susceptible population and other for the treatment control of infected population. We have analysed the existence and stability of equilibrium points and investigated the transcritical and backward bifurcation. The Pontryagin’s maximum principle has been used to characterize the optimal control whose numerical results show the positive impact of two controls mentioned above for controlling the disease. Efficiency analysis is also done to determine the best control strategy among vaccination and treatment.

Time independent fractional Schrodinger equation for generalized Mie-type potential in higher dimension framed with Jumarie type fractional derivative

Abstract: In this paper we obtain approximate bound state solutions of $N$-dimensional fractional time independent Schrodinger equation for generalised Mie-type potential, namely $V(r^{\alpha})=\frac{A}{r^{2\alpha}}+\frac{B}{r^{\alpha}}+C$. Here $\alpha(0<\alpha<1)$ acts like a fractional parameter for the space variable $r$. When $\alpha=1$ the potential converts into the original form of Mie-type of potential that is generally studied in molecular and chemical physics. The entire study is composed with Jumarie type fractional derivative approach. The solution is expressed via Mittag-Leffler function and fractionally defined confluent hypergeometric function. To ensure the validity of the present work, obtained results are verified with the previous works for different potential parameter configurations, specially for $\alpha=1$. At the end, few numerical calculations for energy eigenvalue and bound states eigenfunctions are furnished for a typical diatomic molecule.
