Abstract
The paper presents a new giving up smoking model for which interaction term is square root of potential and occasional smokers of model presented in Zaman (2011) [15]. First, we will show formulation of the model. Then we will discuss local and global stability of the model and its general solutions. The non-standard finite difference method (NSFD) is used to solve the new giving up smoking model. Both non-negativity and conservative law for differential equations system are discussed. Numerical results are presented graphically and compared well with those obtained by Runge-Kutta fourth-order method (RK4) and ODE45.
