  • Academics and traditional schooling normally focus on achievement in the classroom, and so students' inherent creativity rarely gets explored or expressed. In this study, the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Science Classroom Creativity Scale (SCC Scale) were evaluated. The scale has nine factors and a total of 49 items to determine science-specific creativity. A total of 422 students in grades 5–10 in the Central Anatolia Region of Turkey participated in the study. The results showed that the model fit values of the SCC scale are as follows: χ2 /df = 2.07, RMSEA = 0.05 [90% CI: 0.065; 0.078], S-RMR = 0.05, AGFI = 0.91, NFI = 0.90, IFI = 0.95, GFI = 0.91, CFI = 0.92, TLI = 0.91. Also reliability analyses showed that Cronbach's alpha coefficient ranged between 0.90 and 0.96, while McDonald's omega coefficient ranged between 0.90 and 0.98. The validity evidence also indicated that the scale was appropriate for the Turkish sample. In addition, students' creativity was analyzed in terms of demographic variables. Accordingly, the science-specific creativity level varied according to grade level, but there was no statistical difference according to gender. The results were discussed in terms of student creativity in science classrooms.

    The biological sciences have advanced at a breakneck pace during the last few decades, and it's reasonable to predict that this trend will continue, aided by massive technological advancements in a long time. Mathematics has always both contributed to and benefited society. There is huge progress in the natural sciences because of mathematics, and it can do the same for biological science [1]. Biology generates intriguing problems, and mathematics develops models to help us understand them, and biology then tests the mathematical models. The handling of complex mathematical systems has been made easier thanks to recent improvements in computer algebra systems. This has allowed scientists to concentrate on understanding mathematical biology rather than the mechanics of solving problems [2].

    Cancer has always been considered a complex system as it causes different diseases around two hundred with different characteristics. Therefore, many scientists are still trying to investigate the interactions between tumor cells and immune cells by employing different strategies to better understand the dynamics of cancer [3,4]. Research is devoted to understanding the interaction between the immune system and tumor cells [5]. Ordinary differential equations mathematical models have been proven valuable to understand the dynamics of the tumor-immune system how host immune cells and cancerous cells evolve interact; See e.g. [6,7,8]. However, fractional-order differential equations have more characteristics than classical derivatives in mathematical modeling.

    Accordingly, the subject of fractional calculus has gained popularity and importance due to its demonstrated applications in system biology [9], and different fields of sciences [10]. Derivatives and integrals of any non-negative order are allowed in fractional calculus. The benefit of fractional derivatives (integral as well) is that they are not a local (or point) attribute (or quantity) [11]. We noticed that in epidemiology, mathematical models are frequently employed to comprehend the complexity of infectious diseases. The stability theory of differential equations is used to study the dysentery modeling approach with controls [12]. The most often employed operators, such as Caputo-Fabrizio, and Atangana-Baleanu, involve a local derivative with an exponential function, power-law, and a Mittag-Leffler function, respectively. On the other hand, real-world processes display intricate fractal behavior, including volatility, aquifers, porous media, biomedicine, and Darcy's law. In this context, it is necessary to have operators involving nonlocal differentiation in the kernel, which Atangana provided in the form of fractional fractal operators [13]. In the field of mathematical biology, epidemiological models design has been examined using classical and certain fractional-order operators such as conformable derivatives, Caputo-Fabrizio, Atangana-Baleanu, beta derivatives, and a few more. Dengue fever, tuberculosis, measles, Ebola, and other diseases are among the epidemiological designs supported by fractional operators. Nevertheless, fresh real-life applications studied on fractal-fractional operators have shown that the operator's effectiveness is best suited to curves derived under Caputo type fractal operators using actual banking data [14]. Fractal-fractional derivative and integration analysis develop complicated behaviors of diarrhoeal sickness. These operators have created the best curve of the actual data of the diseased population, and the model of diarrhea proves that these novel operators have a unique solution [15]. Some application of fractional order model with the local and nonlocal, nonsingular kernel is also studied in [16,17,18,19,20,21] having memory results for a dynamical system.

    Fractional derivative in the Caputo sense is studied in [29,30,31]. A vitro model of HER 2 + breast cancer cells dynamics resulting from many dosages and timing of paclitaxel and trastuzumab combination regimens was proposed in [30]. Study the pattern and the trend of spread of this disease and prescribe a mathematical model which governs COVID-19 pandemic using Caputo type derivative [32]. Fractal-fractional operator in the Caputo sense, the condition for Ulam's type of stability of the solution to the models and its related work is in [33,34,35,36]. Distributed order time-fractional constitution model is put forward to analyze the unsteady natural convection boundary layer flow and heat transfer, in which the magnetic field effect is considered and its related work is in [37,38,39].

    This paper, in Sections 1 and 2, consists of an introduction and basic definitions for analysis. Section 3 is for the Ulam-Hyres stability and uniqueness of the proposed scheme of the fractional order cancer model with the fractal fractional operator by using generalized Mittag-Leffler Kernel. A numerical algorithm for simulation and results is developed in Section 4. Description and conclusion of results are described in Sections 5 and 6.

    We consider some basic refinement of fractional calculus [22,23,24,25] in this section which are helpful for analysis and simulation of the problem.

    Definition 2.1. Let 0ξ, η1, then U(t) in the Riemann-Liouville for fractal-fractional with power-law kernel and the fractal-fractional integral have been given as [26]:

    FFPDξ,η0,t(U(t))=1Γ(mξ)ddtξt0(tΨ)mξ1U(Ψ)dΨ,
    ddΨηU(Ψ)=limtΨU(t)U(Ψ)tηΨη

    and

    FFPIξ,η0,t(U(t))=1Γ(ξ)t0(tΨ)υ1Ψ1ηU(Ψ)dΨ.

    Definition 2.2. Let 0ξ, η1. Then U(t) in the Riemann-Liouville for fractal fractional operator having exponentially decaying kernel and fractal-fractional integral have been presented by [26,27]:

    FFEDξ,η0,t(U(t))=M(ξ)Γ(mξ)ddtηt0exp[ξ1ξ(tΨ)nξ1U(Ψ)dΨ,

    and

    FFEDξ,η0,t(U(t))=η(1ξ)tη1U(t)M(ξ)+ξηM(ξ)t0Ψξ1U(Ψ)dΨ.

    Definition 2.3. Let 0ξ, η1 then U(t). Then the Riemann-Liouville for fractal fractional operator with generalized Mittag-Leffler kernel and fractal-fractional integral have been presented by [26,27]:

    FFMDξ,η0,t(U(t))=AB(ξ)1ξddtηt0Eξ[ξ1ξ(tΨ)ξU(Ψ)dΨ,

    and

    FFMDξ,η0,t(U(t))=η(1ξ)tη1U(t)AB(ξ)+ξηAB(ξ)t0Ψξ1(tΨ)U(Ψ)dΨ.

    Recently, many researchers studies to examine the mathematical model of cancer-immune [27,28]. By this motivation, IL-12 cytokine is used to increase it ability by increasing the number of CD4+T, CD8+T lymphocytes, and the help of anti-PD-L1 inhibitor with effect of CD8+T cells are added in Castiglione-Piccoli model. So, [27,28] explains the new time-dependent ordinary differential system. Equation (1) tells about components of immune system against cancer cells, which is made by adding IL-12 and anti-PD-L1 to components of immune system. The main objective of adding new variables in (1) is to fight cancer cells for the immune system more effectively. The system of nonlinear fractional order with Fractal Fractional operator is given as

    {FFMDξ,η0,t(H(t))=a0+b0DH(1Hf0)+λ42I2K2+I2H(1Hf0)+λ412I12K12+I12H(1Hf0)c0H,FFMDξ,η0,t(M(t))=a1+b1I2K2+I2(M+D)C(1Cf1)+λ812I12K12+I12C(1Cf1)c1C,FFMDξ,η0,t(C(t))=b2M(1Mf2)d2FMC,FFMDξ,η0,t(D(t))=d3DC,FFMDξ,η0,t(I2(t))=b4DHe4I2Cc4I2,FFMDξ,η0,t(I12(t))=λDI12DdI12I12,FFMDξ,η0,t(Z(t))=γZ. (3.1)

    where

    F=cpd1π(tan1((Z1)kpd)+π2)
    H0=H(0),C0=C(0),M0=M(0),
    D0=D(0),I20=I2(0),I120=I12(0),Z0=Z(0)

    Here H,C,M,D,IL2,IL12 and Z symbolize CD+4T and CD+8T lymphocytes, cancer cells, dendritic cells, IL-2 and IL-12 cytokine, anti-PD-L1, respectively given in [27,28]

    Theorem 1. The solution of the given cancer fractal-fractional model (3.1) along initial conditions is unique and bounded in R7+.

    Proof. We obtain

    FFMDξ,η0,t(H(t))H=0=a00,FFMDξ,η0,t(M(t))M=0=a1+[b1I2K2+I2D+λ812I12K12+I12]C(1Cf1)c1C,0,FFMDξ,η0,t(C(t))C=0=b2M(1Mf2)0,FFMDξ,η0,t(D(t))|D=0=00,FFMDξ,η0,t(I2(t))|I2=0=b4DH0,FFMDξ,η0,t(I12(t))|I12=0=λDI12D0,FFMDξ,η0,t(Z(t))|Z=0=00. (3.2)

    If (S(0),U(0),C(0),Ca(0),R(0),B(0)R6+, then according to Eq (3.2) thee solution cannot escape from the hyperplane. Also on each hyperplane bounding the non-negative orthant, the vector field points into R7+, i.e., the domain R7+ is a positively invariant set.

    Stability and existences of proposed operator

    Here, we consider stability and existences with proposed operator,

    FFMDξ,η0,t(H(t))=a0+b0DH(1Hf0)+λ42I2K2+I2H(1Hf0)+λ412I12K12+I12H(1Hf0)c0H,FFMDξ,η0,t(M(t))=a1+b1I2K2+I2(M+D)C(1Cf1)+λ812I12K12+I12C(1Cf1)c1C,FFMDξ,η0,t(C(t))=b2M(1Mf2)d2FMC,FFMDξ,η0,t(D(t))=d3DC,FFMDξ,η0,t(I2(t))=b4DHe4I2Cc4I2,FFMDξ,η0,t(I12(t))=λDI12DdI12I12,FFMDξ,η0,t(Z(t))=γZ. (3.3)

    For existence, we have

    {ABR0Dξ,η0,t(H(t))=ηtη1Z1(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z),ABR0Dξ,η0,t(M(t))=ηtη1Y1(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z),ABR0Dξ,η0,t(C(t))=ηtη1X1(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z),ABR0Dξ,η0,t(D(t))=ηtη1W1(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z),ABR0Dξ,η0,t(I2(t))=ηtη1V1(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z),ABR0Dξ,η0,t(I12(t))=ηtη1U1(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z),ABR0Dξ,η0,t(Z(t))=ηtη1E1(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z). (3.4)

    where

    {Z(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z)=a0+b0DH(1Hf0)+λ42I2K2+I2H(1Hf0)+λ412I12K12+I12H(1Hf0)c0H,Y(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z)=a1+b1I2K2+I2(M+D)C(1Cf1)+λ812I12K12+I12C(1Cf1)c1C,X(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z)=b2M(1Mf2)d2FMC,W(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z)=d3DC,V(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z)=b4DHe4I2Cc4I2,U(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z)=λDI12DdI12I12,E(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z)=γZ.

    We can write system (3.4) as:

    {ABR0DξtΩ(t)=ηtη1Λ(t,Ω(t)),Ω(0)=Ω0.

    By replacing ABR0Dξ,η0 by ABC0Dξ,η0 and applying fractional integral, we get

    Ω(t)=Ω(0)+ηtη1(1ξ)CD(ξ)Λ(t,Ω(t))+ξηCD(ξ)Γ(ξ)t0ωη1(tω)η1Λ(t,Ω(t))dω,

    where

    Ω(t)={H(t)M(t)C(t)D(t)I2(t)I12(t)Z(t)Ω(0)={H(0)M(0)C(0)D(0)I2(0)I12(0)Z(0)Λ(t,Ω(t))={Z(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z),Y(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z),X(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z),W(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z),V(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z),U(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z)E(t,H,M,C,D,I2,I12,Z)

    For the existence theory, we define a Banach space B=C×C×C×C×C×C×C, where C=[0,T] under the norm

    Ω=maxtϵ[0,T]|H(t)+M(t)+C(t)+D(t)+I2(t)+I12(t),Z(t)|.

    Define an operator :BB as:

    (Ω)(t)=Ω(0)+ηtη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)Λ(t,Ω(t))+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)t0ωη1(tω)η1Λ(t,Ω(t))dω. (3.5)

    Now, we suppose that Λ(t,(Ω(t)) is the non-linear function with growth and the Lipschitz conditions.

    ● For each ΩϵB, constants AΛ and PΛ such that

    |Λ(t,Ω(t))AΛ|Ω(t)|+PΛ. (3.6)

    ● For each Ω, ¯ΩϵB,a constant KΛ>0 such that

    |Λ(t,Ω(t))Λ(t,¯Ω(t)|KΛ|Ω(t)¯Ω(t)|. (3.7)

    Theorem 2. For the set of continuous function Λ=[0,T]×BR there exists at least single outcome for system (3.1) if the condition (3.6) holds.

    Proof.

    Let

    L= {ΩϵB:ΩR,R>0}.

    Now for any ΩϵB, we have

    |(Ω)|=maxtϵ[0,T]|Ω(0)+ηtη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)Λ(t,Ω(t))+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)t0ωη1(tω)η1Λ(t,Ω(t))dω
    Ω(0)+ηTη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)(AΛΩ+PΛ)+maxtϵ[0,T]ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)t0ωη1(tω)η1|Λ(t,Ω(t))|dω
    Ω(0)+ηMη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)(AΛΩ+PΛ)+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)(AΛΩ+PΛ)Tξ+η1L(ξ,η)
    R.

    Hence, is uniformly bounded, for equicontinuity of , let us take t1<t2T. So, we have

    |(Ω)(t2)(Ω)(t1)|=|ηtη12(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)Λ(t2,Ω(t2))+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)t20ωη1(t2ω)η1Λ(ω,Ω(ω))dω
    ηtη11(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)Λ(t1,Ω(t1))+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)t10ωη1(t1ω)η1Λ(ω,Ω(ω))dω|
    |ηtη12(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)(AΛ|Ω(t)|,PΛ)+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)(AΛ|Ω(t)|,PΛ)tξ+η12L(ξ,η)
    |ηtη11(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)(AΛ|Ω(t)|,PΛ)+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)(AΛ|Ω(t)|,PΛ)tξ+η11L(ξ,η),

    when t1t2 then |(Ω)(t2(Ω)(t1|. Consequently, we can say that,

    (Ω)(t2(Ω)(t10,t1t2.

    Hence, is equicontinuous. So, theorem is proved. Thus, system has at least one solution.

    Theorem 3. Assume that (3.7) holds. If ϱ<1, where

    ϱ=(ηTη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)Tξ+η1L(ξ,η))KΛ.

    Then the considered model has a unique solution.

    Proof. For Ω,¯ΩϵB, we have

    |(Ω)(¯Ω)|=maxtϵ[0,T]|ηtη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)(Λ(t,Ω(t))Λ(t,¯Ω(t)))+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)
    t0ωη1(tω)η1dω(Λ(ω,Ω(ω))Λ(ω,¯Ω(ω)))|
    [ηTη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)Tξ+η1L(ξ,η)]Ω¯Ω
    ϱΩ¯Ω.

    Hence, is a contraction. So, system has unique solution by using Banach contraction principle.

    Definition 3.1. The proposed model is Ulam-Hyres stable if ξ,η0 such that for any ε>0 and for every Ω(C[0,T],R) satisfies the following inequality:

    |FFM0Dξ,ηtΩ(t)Λ(t,Ω(t))|ε,tϵ[0,T], (3.8)

    and there exists a unique solution Υ(C[0,T],R) such that

    |Ω(t)Υ(t)|ξ,ηε,tϵ[0,T]. (3.9)

    Consider a small perturbation ΨC[0,T] such that Ψ(0)=0. Let

    |ψ(t)|εforε>0.
    FFM0Dξ,ηtΩ(t)=Λ(t,Ω(t))+ψ(t).

    Theorem 4. The solution of the perturbed model

    FFM0Dξ,ηtΩ(t)=Λ(t,Ω(t))+ψ(t),Ω(0)=Ω0,

    fulfills the relation given below

    |(t)(Ω(0)+ηtη1(1ξ)C1D1ξ)Λ(t,Ω(t))+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)t0ωη1(tω)η1Λ(ω,Ω(ω))dω,)|
    ξξ,ηε, (3.10)

    where

    ξξ,η=ηTη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)Tξ+η1L(ξ,η).

    Proof. Under condition (3.7) along with Theorem 3.5, the solution of the proposed model is Ulam-Hyres stable if ϱ<1.

    Let ΥB be a unique solution and ΩB be any solution of the proposed model, then

    |Ω(t)Υ(t)|=|Ω(t)(Υ(0)+ηtη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)Λ(t,Υ(t))+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)
    t0ωη1(tω)η1Λ(ω,Υ(ω))dω)|
    |Ω(t)(Ω(0)+ηtη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)Λ(t,Ω(t))+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)t0ωη1(tω)η1Λ(ω,Ω(ω))dω)|
    +|Ω(0)+ηtη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)Λ(t,Ω(t))+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)t0ωη1(tω)η1Λ(ω,Ω(ω))dω)|
    |Υ(0)+ηtη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)Λ(t,Υ(t))+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)t0ωη1(tω)η1Λ(ω,Υ(ω))dω)|
    ξξ,ηε+(ηTη1(1ξ)C1D1(ξ)+ξηC1D1(ξ)Γ(ξ)Tξ+η1L(ξ,η))KΛ|Ω(t)Υ(t)|
    ξξ,ηε+ϱ|Ω(t)Υ(t)|.

    Consequently, one can write

    ΩΥξξ,ηε+ϱΩΥ.

    We can write the above relation is

    ΩΥξ,ηε,

    The mathematical analysis of the tumor-immune system consisting of a fractional differential equation has been presented. In order to conduct a credible study, several α values are evaluated. By using non-integer parameter values, surprising reactions are achieved from the compartments of the proposed fractional-order model. Solution for H(t),M(t),C(t), I2(t) and I12(t) start decreasing by decreasing the fractional values while D(t) and Z(t) start increasing by decreasing fractional values respectively and can be seen easily from Figures 17 which converges to steady state with dimension 0.7. Solution for H(t),M(t),D(t), I2(t), I12(t) and Z(t) start increasing by decreasing the fractional values while C(t) start decreasing by decreasing fractional values respectively and can be seen easily from Figures 814 which converges to steady state with dimension 0.9. It is easily observed from Figure 3 and Figure 9 that cancer cell start decreasing by decreasing the fractional with both dimensions. But Fractal-fractional technique with dimension 0.9 gives better results for all the compartments which converges rapidly to steady state as compare to dimension 0.7. It is easily observed from simulation that fractional order model check the relationship between cancer cells and immune system which further increase the immune system of CD4+T and CD8+T lymphocytes production and decrease the cancer cell by adding IL-12 cytokine and anti-PD-L1 inhibitor. The variable anti-PD-L1 inhibitor was introduced to catch cells escaping from the immune system and destroy these cells which can be seen in Figures 7 and 14 with both dimensions. Also the variable IL-12 cytokine is used to increase the number of CD4+T and CD8+T lymphocytes production which can be seen in Figures 1, 2 and 8, 9 with dimension 0.7 and 0.9 respectively. This kind of study helps to analyze the effect of cancer cell and its anti-PD-L1 inhibitor in human body. Numerical simulations are important in sense for developing algorithm of treatment cell and impact of vaccination to control the disease. This kind of study is helpful for physician for planing and decision making for treatment cells.

    We developed a scheme for the analytical solution of the fractional order cancer model by using the Fractal Fractional operator. The model represents population dynamics during the disease as a set of non-linear fractional-order ordinary differential equations. The Fractional-order system is analyzed qualitatively to verify the state of the disease as well as determine the unique positive solutions. Uniqueness and boundedness for solution are proved using the fixed point theory. The solution is obtained for the fractional-order cancer model using the Fractal Fractional operator. Numerical simulations are carried out to check the actual behavior of the cancer outbreak using a developed scheme for fractional-order model, which will be helpful in future understanding of this disease and control strategics. The simulation easily observed that the fractional-order model examines that IL-12 cytokine and anti-PD-L1 inhibitor are used to check the relationship between the immune system and cancer cells, which cause to increase the immune system and decrease the cancer cell is due to IL-12 cytokine and anti-PD-L1 inhibitor with the impact of fractional parameters. Results show significant changes using different fractional values with different dimensions. Numerical simulations are important for developing an algorithm of treatment cells and the impact of vaccination to control the disease. In the future, the other cytokineses are also added to the mathematical model, which can further check with different types of derivatives and different types of techniques.
