Control of multiple viruses interacting and propagating in multilayer networks
Summary: Experimental studies involving control against virus propagation have attracted the interest of scientists. However, most accomplishments have been constrained by the simple assumption of a single virus in various networks, but this assumption apparently conflicts with recent developments in complex network theory, which details that each node might play multiple roles in different topological connections. Multiple viruses propagate through individuals via different routes, and thus, each individual component could be located in various positions of differing importance in each virus propagation process in each network. Therefore, we propose several control strategies for establishing a multiple-virus interaction and propagation model involving multiplex networks, including a novel Multiplex PageRank target control model and a multiplex random control model. Using computer experiments and simulations derived from actual examples, we exploit several actual cases to determine the relationship of the relative infection probability with the immunization probability. The results demonstrate the differences between our multiple-virus interaction and propagation model and the single-virus propagation model and verify the effectiveness of our novel Multiplex PageRank target control strategy. Moreover, we use parallel computing for simulating and identifying the relationships of the immunization thresholds with both interaction coefficients, which is beneficial for further practical applications because it can reduce the multiple interactions between viruses and allows achieving a greater effect through the immunization of fewer nodes in the multilayer networks.
