In the current article, we aim to study in detail a novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV or COVID-19) mathematical model for different aspects under Caputo fractional derivative. First, from analysis point of view, existence is necessary to be investigated for any applied problem. Therefore, we used fixed point theorem's due to Banach's and Schaefer's to establish some sufficient results regarding existence and uniqueness of the solution to the proposed model. On the other hand, stability is important in respect of approximate solution, so we have developed condition sufficient for the stability of Ulam-Hyers and their different types for the considered system. In addition, the model has also been considered for semianalytical solution via Laplace Adomian decomposition method (LADM). On Matlab, by taking some real data about Pakistan, we graph the obtained results. In the last of the manuscript, a detail discussion and brief conclusion are provided.

This paper studies a new preconditioning technique for sparse systems arising from discretized partial differential equations in computational fluid dynamics problems. This preconditioning technique exploits the multilevel sequentially semiseparable (MSSS) structure of the system matrix. MSSS matrix computations give a data-sparse way to approximate the LU factorization of a sparse matrix from discretized partial differential equations in linear computational complexity with respect to the problem size. In contrast to the standard block diagonal and block upper-triangular preconditioners, we exploit the global MSSS structure of the 2×2 block system from the discretized Stokes equation and linearized Navier-Stokes equation. This avoids approximating the Schur complement explicitly, which is a big advantage over standard block preconditioners. Through numerical experiments on standard computational fluid dynamics benchmark problems in Incompressible Flow and Iterative Solver Software, we show the performance of the MSSS preconditioners. They indicate that the global MSSS preconditioner not only yields mesh size independent convergence but also gives viscosity parameter and Reynolds number independent convergence. Compared with the algebraic multigrid (AMG) method and the geometric multigrid (GMG) method for block preconditioners, the MSSS preconditioning technique is more robust than both the AMG method and GMG method, and considerably faster than the AMG method.
