Abstract
In this study, we extend the properties of the Mittag-Leffler function that occurs as the solution of a fractional differential equation. Also, we use the properties to solve a fractional order mathematical model of epidemiology and offer a novel technique for obtaining an approximate solution to a fractional logistic equation.
