Abstract: The model of transmission dynamics of vector-borne diseases with vertical transmission and cure within a targeted population is extended to the concept of fractional differentiation and integration with non-local and non-singular fading memory introduced. The effect of vertical transmission and cure rate on the basic reproduction number is shown. The Atangana–Baleanu fractional operator in caputo sense (ABC) with non-singular and non-local kernels is used to study the model. The existence and uniqueness of solutions are investigated using the Picard–Lindel method. Ultimately, for illustrating the acquired results, we perform some numerical simulations and show graphically to observe the impact of the arbitrary order derivative. It is expected that the proposed model will show better approximation than the classical model established before.
