Coevolution spreading in complex networks

W Wang, QH Liu, J Liang, Y Hu, T Zhou - Physics Reports, 2019 - Elsevier

Effect of the interconnected network structure on the epidemic threshold

H Wang, Q Li, G D'Agostino, S Havlin, HE Stanley… - Physical Review E …, 2013 - APS
Most real-world networks are not isolated. In order to function fully, they are interconnected
with other networks, and this interconnection influences their dynamic processes. For …

Non-Markovian infection spread dramatically alters the susceptible-infected-susceptible epidemic threshold in networks

P Van Mieghem, R Van de Bovenkamp - Physical review letters, 2013 - APS
Most studies on susceptible-infected-susceptible epidemics in networks implicitly assume
Markovian behavior: the time to infect a direct neighbor is exponentially distributed. Much …
