Abstract
Author-writtenThe aim of this study is to theoretically investigate the model parameters of the food chain ecoepidemic model using the Laplace transform decomposition method. The first order autonomous differential equations governing the model were reduced via the Laplace transform and Adomian decomposition to an algebraic equation, where the inverse Laplace transform gives the pertinent parameters. The analytically obtained solution which is the partial sum of the infinite series is then treated with Pade approximation to improve its convergence. To validate the results obtained, we compare the numerical solution via LADM with other semi-analytical methods viz LADM-Pade and Daftardar-Jafari (DJM. The results obtained are presented in tables and figures. The comparison showed, there is excellent agreement between the methods. It is observed the method is valid, efficient, applicable, robust, and computationally convenient to handle both linear and nonlinear differential as well partial differential equations.

From the original paperIntroduction
In the field of ecology and biological sciences, trophic levels containing food chains play a pivotal role. Though this area of research is relatively nascent, researchers have done extensive research on this area with a view to understanding the ever-changing behaviour of the food web, modelling and analysing the changes in the pertinent parameters of the model. Earlier studies in the food chain model were carried out by Gard et al. 1979 [1] , Hallam and Gard 1980 [2] , Shukla 1981 et al. [3] and Kirlinger 1988 [4] . These studies were incisive and elaborate but couldn't incorporate all the intriguing factors that affects the food web and its attendant competition The extinction of the food web was modelled by [5] using a single variable parameter. The study of these mathematical models has grown among academics the world over especially in recent times due to the importance of food in the ecosystem. This now encompasses studies of diseases affecting the predator-prey both at the top and bottom, disease affecting interacting species in each population, effect of disease in aquatic lives, disease in parasitic and symbiotic environment and roles of parasites in ecology and many more. The dynamics and nature of diseases causing organism as well as others factor which breeds competition has equally been giving devoted attention by scholars. Most recently, Tripathi et al. 2004 [6] examined the prey-predator model with an emphasis on a reserved area. The study reveals that, when the parameter bearing the reserved area reaches a certain threshold, Hopf bifurcation sets in. It was further shown that better stabilizing influence results when predator refuse is introduced using Beddington-De Angeles functional response. This, the study opined is useful to national parks where prey and predators co-exist together, and the prey wished to be protected [7] . The Lokta-Volterra system with pest was investigated by Venturino 1993 [8] . In this study, the introduction of the pest was a check to keep predators at bay so the prey population wouldn't be utterly harmed by the predators [9][10] . independently analysed the prey-predator models including the SIS, SIR with infected prey. It was observed in this study that, when the prey population is vulnerable due to the disease introduced, the predators will persistently be present when indeed they are supposed to go extinction. Though most of these models are first order nonlinear autonomous differential equations, several approaches have been adopted to solve them for analytical and approximates solutions. These includes variational iteration method (VIM) [12][13] , Energy balance method [14][15] , Homotopy Analysis method (HAM) [16][17] , Homotopy perturbation method (HPM) [18] , Adomian decomposition method (ADM) [19] , Perturbation method [20] and others. Similarly, the modified Laplace Adomian decomposition method (LADM) have proved to be potent and extensively applied to solve several linear and nonlinear problems in contemporary times since it accelerates the rate of convergence of the approximate solution to the exact solution [21] . investigated the SIR model that incorporate child disease with preventive vaccine strategy using LADM. The system of linear and nonlinear PDEs have been studied by [22] . The study showed when more terms are taken, the convergence of the approximate solution was improved compared to ADM. The Duffing equation, Falkner-Skan equation, systems of nonlinear differential equations, nonlinear coupled PDEs, HIV infection model of CD4+Tcells, Newell-Whitehead-Segel equation, Systems of ordinary differential equations, linear and nonlinear Volterra Integral equation, Nonlinear Volterra Integro-differential equation, nth order integro-differential equation, two-dimensional viscous fluid with shrinking sheet, convection diffusion-dissipation equation, crime deterrence model, dynamics of atmospheric carbon dioxide have all been investigated using LADM [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33] . Equally, the Daftardar-Jafari method (DJM) presented by Daftardar-Gejji Varsha, and Hossein Jafari have also been used to solve linear and nonlinear problems including PDEs, Jeffery-Hamel flow problems, nonlinear functional equation, fractional physical differential equation and fractional gas dynamics equation with coupled Burger's equation [34][35][36][37][38] . In this present research, we theoretically investigate the model parameters in the Ecoepidemic model of food chain consisting of three trophic levels namely: top predators, intermediate predators and a bottom subpopulation comprising infected and susceptible preys. The study is organized as follows. In section 1, the detailed introduction of the study is given. The basics of the Laplace Adomian decomposition method (LADM) is presented in section 2. The fundamentals of the Daftardar-Jafari method (DJM) are discussed in section 3. Section 4 gives the application of the LADM to the model to ascertain the model parameters. In section 5, the results are presented in tables, figures, and their explanation. Finally, the conclusion of the study is drawn in section 6.
Laplace Decomposition method (LADM)
In this subsection, we outline the basics of the fundamentals of the fusion Laplace transformation and Adomian decomposition method (LADM) Consider a functional differential equation of the form
Subject to the initial condition
Rearranging the above, we obtain the following relation for
Applying Laplace transform on both sides of Eq. ( 1), supposing the highest differential operator is of order two and using the differentiation property, we get
Next, we apply the inverse transform on both sides of Eq. ( 4), we obtain
Where 𝜙(𝑥) is the term arising from the first three terms on the right-hand side of Eq. ( 5) Next, we assume the solution as decomposing series in the form
Similarly, the nonlinear terms are written in terms of the Adomian polynomials
Where the 𝐴 𝑛 ′𝑠 represents the Adomian polynomials defined in the form
Plugging Eqs ( 6) and ( 7) into Eq. ( 5), we obtain
Matching both sides of Eq. ( 9), we obtain an iterative algorithm in the form
Then the solution of the differential equation is obtained as the sum of decomposed series in the form
Padé Approximation
In Mathematics and other applied sciences, power series representation of a function is usually in truncated form. To approximate these functions to an appreciable degree, polynomials are used because their singularities are easily noticeable in each finite region. However, the radius of convergence may not be large enough to contain two boundaries, for this reason, power series is not always the best method to approximate a function. To overcome this inherent hurdle, a new approximation is applied to the solution obtained using power series as a quotient of two functions with varying degrees in a finite interval. Pade approximation has been widely used to approximate several problems and has tremendous applications especially in computer calculation because it gives a better approximation without truncating its power series and still in problems where the series diverges. The different Pade approximants are obtained with the use of symbolic software Mathematica. [See 39 -42] A rational approximation to a function 𝑓(𝑥) on [𝑎, 𝑏] is the quotient of two polynomials, 𝑃 𝑁 (𝑥) and 𝑄 𝑀 (𝑥) of degrees 𝑁 and 𝑀 respectively. It is denoted by
Now consider the formal power series
Multiply both sides of Eq. ( 14) by a constant keep it unchanged, hence we impose the normalization condition.
Next, we require that 𝑃 𝑁 (𝑥) and 𝑄 𝑀 (𝑥) have non-common factors, so we write the coefficients of the 𝑃 𝑁 (𝑥) and 𝑄 𝑀 (𝑥) as follows
Using Eqs. ( 15) and ( 16), we multiply Eq. ( 13) by 𝑄 𝑀 (𝑥). This linearizes the coefficient equation. Its is given in detailed form as
Equating the coefficients of 𝑥 𝑁+1 , 𝑥 𝑁+2 , … , 𝑥 𝑁+𝑀 successively to zero, we obtain the system of Equations
For 𝑗 < 0, we define 𝑐 𝑘 = 0 for consistency. Setting 𝑏 0 = 1, Eq. ( 12) become a set of 𝑀 linear equations for 𝑀 unknown coefficients in the denominator.
Solving the above system in Eq. ( 18), the coefficients 𝑏 𝑖 for 𝑖 = 1,2, … . 𝑀 may be found. Since the coefficients of the numerator, 𝑐 0 , 𝑐 1 , 𝑐 2 , … . , 𝑐 𝑘 is known. We equate the coefficients of 1, 𝑥, 𝑥 2 , … , 𝑥 𝑁 , 𝑥 𝑁+𝑀 to obtain the remaining coefficients 𝑎 0 , 𝑎 1 , 𝑎 2 , … , 𝑎 𝑁 𝑥 0 : 𝑐 0 -𝑎 0 = 0
𝑥 𝑁 : 𝑐 0 𝑏 𝑁 + 𝑐 1 𝑏 𝑁-1 + 𝑐 𝑁 -𝑎 𝑁 = 0
Writing the above in explicit form, we obtain
In view of Eqs. ( 18) and ( 19), the numerator and denominator of the Pade approximant are all determined which agrees with the original series to the order of 𝑥 𝑁+𝑀. Now, to solve the system (19) for the set of unknowns, we assume that the Eqs. ( 18) and ( 19) are non-singular, so we can obtain the solution via the determinant.
To obtain the diagonal Pade approximants of different orders such as
⁄ ], we use symbolic software Mathematica
Application of LADM to the Epidemic Model
We consider the eco-epidemic model as follows
By the LADM, we represent the linear terms as an infinite series of the form
Similarly, the nonlinear terms as Adomian polynomials of the form
Where 𝐴 𝑛 , 𝐵 𝑛 , 𝐶 𝑛 , 𝐷 𝑛 and 𝐸 𝑛 are the so-called Adomian polynomials expressed equivalently as follows
Plugging Eqs. ( 28) and ( 29) into Eq. ( 26), we obtain
Matching both sides of Eq. ( 35) we have the following iterative algorithm for the control parameters of the model as follows
Applying the inverse Laplace transform of both sides of Eq. ( 38)- (39), we obtain the following iteratives for the parameters as follows
The next iterate of the problem become
Evaluating the Laplace transform of Eqs. ( 40) and ( 41) and taking the inverse Laplace transform, we obtain the first and approximate solutions of the model 𝑊 0 (𝑡), 𝑉 0 (𝑡), 𝐼 0 (𝑡), 𝑆 0 (𝑡) and 𝑊 1 (𝑡), 𝑉 1 (𝑡), 𝐼 1 (𝑡), 𝑆 1 (𝑡)
Similarly, the succeeding iterative solution of the parameters of interest, 𝑊 2 (𝑡), 𝑊 3 (𝑡), … , 𝑊 𝑛 (𝑡), 𝑉 2 (𝑡), 𝑉 3 (𝑡), … , 𝑉 𝑛 (𝑡), 𝐼 2 (𝑡), 𝐼 3 (𝑡), … , 𝐼 𝑛 (𝑡) and 𝑆 2 (𝑡), 𝑆 3 (𝑡), … , 𝑆 𝑛 (𝑡) are obtained recursively in a similar manner.
Numerical Simulation
Now to obtain the solutions of the control parameters of the model in explicit form, we apply the LADM and take the following values via simulation.𝑊(0) = 1, 𝑉(0) = 1, 𝐼(0) = 1, 𝑆(0) = 1 for the four parameters of interest. Next, we take 𝑎 = 3, 𝐾 = 5, 𝑚 = 1, 𝑝 = 0.2, 𝑙 = 3, 𝑒 = 1, ℎ = 0.5, 𝑞 = 1, 𝛽 = 2, 𝑛 = 0.5, 𝑐 = 1, 𝛾 = 10 and 𝜐 = 0
Using the above, we obtain the first few approximations to the parameters given as
Taking the inverse Laplace transform of both sides of Eqs. ( 42) and (43), we obtain the partial sum of the parameters of interest as follows.
𝑆(𝑡) = 1 + 10𝑡 -4𝑡 2 -0.6𝑡
Results and Discussion
In this section, we present the results in Tables and Graphs and their interpretation. Comparison is made between the result obtained using ADM, LADM-Pade and Daftardar-Jafari method (DJM).
Concluding Remarks
In this present work, we investigate the model parameters of the food chain ecoepidemic model with three trophic levels consisting of top predators, intermediate predators and bottom predators comprising susceptible and infected subpopulation using the Laplace decomposition method. The solutions were obtained and matched with an improved LADM-Pade approximation to increase its convergence. In the final analysis, we compare the results with fourth order Runge-Kutta method. The result shows, the method is robust, applicable, correct, valid, and efficient with less computational work.
