Cooperative Epidemic Spreading in Complex Networks
نویسنده
چکیده
Most epidemic spreading models assume memoryless systems and statistically independent infections. Nevertheless, many real-life cases are manifestly time-sensitive and may be strongly correlated. We study the effect of non-Markovian stochastic dynamics on the SIS model, in random and scale-free networks, and propose a novel microscopic description to account for cooperation. Initial exploratory simulations yield promising results, calling for further research.

A Preliminary Study on Effects of Community Structures on Epidemic Spreading and Detection in Complex Networks
Community structures widely exist in almost all real-life networks. Extensive researches have been carried out on detecting community structures in complex networks. However, many aspects of how community structures may affect the dynamics and properties of complex networks still remain unclear. In this work, we examine the impacts of community structures on the epidemic spreading and detection...
متن کاملEpidemic dynamics and endemic states in complex networks.
We study by analytical methods and large scale simulations a dynamical model for the spreading of epidemics in complex networks. In networks with exponentially bounded connectivity we recover the usual epidemic behavior with a threshold defining a critical point below that the infection prevalence is null. On the contrary, on a wide range of scale-free networks we observe the absence of an epid...
متن کاملUnification of theoretical approaches for epidemic spreading on complex networks.
Models of epidemic spreading on complex networks have attracted great attention among researchers in physics, mathematics, and epidemiology due to their success in predicting and controlling scenarios of epidemic spreading in real-world scenarios. To understand the interplay between epidemic spreading and the topology of a contact network, several outstanding theoretical approaches have been de...
متن کاملMathematical models for epidemic spreading on complex networks
We propose a model for epidemic spreading on a finite complex network with a restriction to at most one contamination per time step. Because of a highly discrete character of the process, the analysis cannot use the continous approximation, widely exploited for most of the models. Using discrete approach we investigate the epidemic threshold and the quasi-stationary distribution. The main resul...
