Quasistationary analysis of the contact process on annealed scale-free networks.

چکیده
We present an analysis of the quasistationary (QS) state of the contact process (CP) on annealed scale-free networks using a mapping of the CP dynamics in a one-step process and analyzing numerically and analytically the corresponding master equation. The relevant QS quantities determined via the master equation exhibit an excellent agreement with direct QS stochastic simulations of the CP. The high accuracy of the resulting data allows a probe of the strong corrections to scaling present in both the critical and supercritical regions, corrections that mask the correct finite-size scaling obtained analytically by applying an exact heterogeneous mean-field approach. Our results represent a promising starting point for a deeper understanding of the contact process and absorbing phase transitions on real (quenched) complex networks.

Quasistationary simulations of the contact process on quenched networks.
We present high-accuracy quasistationary (QS) simulations of the contact process in quenched networks, built using the configuration model with both structural and natural cutoffs. The critical behavior is analyzed in the framework of the anomalous finite-size scaling which was recently shown to hold for the contact process on annealed networks. It turns out that the quenched topology does not ...
متن کاملLangevin approach for the dynamics of the contact process on annealed scale-free networks.
We study the dynamics of the contact process, one of the simplest nonequilibrium stochastic processes, taking place on a scale-free network. We consider the network topology as annealed, i.e., all links are rewired at each microscopic time step, so that no dynamical correlation can build up. This is a practical implementation of the absence of correlations assumed by mean-field approaches. We p...
متن کاملCritical behavior of the Ising model in annealed scale-free networks.
We study the critical behavior of the Ising model in annealed scale-free (SF) networks of finite system size with forced upper cutoff in degree. By mapping the model onto the weighted fully connected Ising model, we derive analytic results for the finite-size scaling (FSS) near the phase transition, characterized by the cutoff-dependent two-parameter scaling with four distinct scaling regimes, ...
متن کاملSolution of voter model dynamics on annealed small-world networks.
An analytical study of the behavior of the voter model on the small-world topology is performed. In order to solve the equations for the dynamics, we consider an annealed version of the Watts-Strogatz (WS) network, where long-range connections are randomly chosen at each time step. The resulting dynamics is as rich as on the original WS network. A temporal scale tau separates a quasistationary ...
متن کاملNon-Mean-Field Behavior of the Contact Process on Scale-Free Networks
0031-9007= We present an analysis of the classical contact process on scale-free networks. A mean-field study, both for finite and infinite network sizes, yields an absorbing-state phase transition at a finite critical value of the control parameter, characterized by a set of exponents depending on the network structure. Since finite size effects are large and the infinite network limit cannot ...
