STEADY STATES OF EPIDEMIC SPREADING IN SMALL-WORLD NETWORKS

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We consider a standard extit{susceptible-infected-susceptible} (SIS) model to study behaviors of steady states of epidemic spreading in small-world networks. Using analytical methods and large scale simulations, we recover the usual epidemic behavior with a critical threshold lambdac below which infectious diseases die out. Whereas for the spreading rate lambda far above lambdac, it was found that the density of infected individuals ho as a function of lambda has the property hoapproxF(K)(lnlambda−lnlambdac).
