Diffusion and protection across a random graph

Diffusion and protection across a random graph

We study the interplay between the diffusion of a harmful state in a network of contacts and the possibility of individual agents to undertake costly investment to protect themselves against infection. We characterize how equilibrium diffusion outcomes, such as immunization rate and total prevalence, respond to changes in the architecture of the network, and show that these responses depend on ...

a comparative pragmatic analysis of the speech act of “disagreement” across english and persian

A Deterministic Model for Analyzing Stochastic Communication Patterns across Graph- Representational Diffusion Networks

Uncertain Random Graph and Uncertain Random Network

This paper proposes a concept of uncertain random graph in which some edges exist with some degrees in probability measure and others exist with some degrees in uncertain measure, and discusses the connectivity index of an uncertain random graph. In addition, this paper presents a concept uncertain random network in which some weights are random variables and others are uncertain variables, and...
