  • Abstract
    In this paper, we introduce a fractional order SEIR epidemic model with vertical transmission, where the death rate of the population is density dependent, i.e., dependent on the population size. It is also assumed that there exists an infection related death rate. We show the existence of nonnegative solutions of the model, and also give a detailed stability analysis of disease free and positive fixed points. A numerical example is also presented.
