Stability analysis of a fractional-order two-species facultative mutualism model with harvesting

We present a fractional-order model of two-species facultative mutualism with harvesting. We investigate the stability of the equilibrium points of the model by using the linearization method for noncoexistence of equilibrium points and the Lyapunov direct method for the positive coexistence of an equilibrium point. In addition, we obtain sufficient conditions to ensure the local asymptotic stability and global uniform asymptotic stability for the model. Finally, we provide illustrated numerical examples to verify the stability results obtained in this study.
