Long-range epidemic spreading with immunization
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the phase transition between survival and extinction in an epidemic process with long-range interactions and immunization. This model can be viewed as the well-known general epidemic process (GEP) in which nearestneighbor interactions are replaced by Levy flights over distances r which are distributed as P (r) ∼ r. By extensive numerical simulations we confirm previous fieldtheoretical results obtained by Janssen et al. [Eur. Phys. J. B 7, 137 (1999)].

Competing spreading processes and immunization in multiplex networks
Epidemic spreading on physical contact network will naturally introduce the human awareness information diffusion on virtual contact network, and the awareness diffusion will in turn depress the epidemic spreading, thus forming the competing spreading processes of epidemic and awareness in a multiplex networks. In this paper, we study the competing dynamics of epidemic and awareness, both of wh...
متن کاملEpidemic spreading with immunization rate on complex networks
We investigate the spread of diseases, computer viruses or information on complex networks and also immunization strategies to prevent or control the spread. When an entire population cannot be immunized and the effect of immunization is not perfect, we need the targeted immunization with immunization rate. Under such a circumstance we calculate epidemic thresholds for the SIR and SIS epidemic ...
متن کاملEpidemic spreading with immunization and mutations.
The spreading of infectious diseases with and without immunization of individuals can be modeled by stochastic processes that exhibit a transition between an active phase of epidemic spreading and an absorbing phase, where the disease dies out. In nature, however, the transmitted pathogen may also mutate, weakening the effect of immunization. In order to study the influence of mutations, we int...
متن کاملEpidemic spreading with nonlinear infectivity in weighted scale-free networks
In this paper, we investigate the epidemic spreading for SIR model in weighted scale-free networks with nonlinear infectivity, where the transmission rate in our analytical model is weighted. Concretely, we introduce the infectivity exponent α and the weight exponent β into the analytical SIR model, then examine the combination effects of α and β on the epidemic threshold and phase transition. ...
متن کاملImmunization and epidemic dynamics in complex networks
We study the behavior of epidemic spreading in networks, and, in particular, scale free networks. We use the Susceptible–Infected–Removed (SIR) epidemiological model. We give simulation results for the dynamics of epidemic spreading. By mapping the model into a static bond-percolation model we derive analytical results for the total number of infected individuals. We study this model with vario...
