Discrete-time layered-network epidemics model with time-varying transition rates and multiple resources

S Cui, F Liu, H Jardón-Kojakhmetov, M Cao - Automatica, 2024 - Elsevier
This paper studies a discrete-time time-varying multi-layer networked SIWS (susceptible-
infected-water-susceptible) model with multiple resources under both single-virus and …

General SIS diffusion process with indirect spreading pathways on a hypergraph

S Cui, F Liu, H Jardón-Kojakhmetov, M Cao - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
While conventional graphs only characterize pairwise interactions, higher-order networks
(hypergraph, simplicial complex) capture multi-body interactions, which is a potentially more …

Epidemics spread over networks: Influence of infrastructure and opinions

B She, S Gracy, S Sundaram… - Cyber–Physical …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
In this chapter, we focus on epidemics spreading over networks. Over the last several
decades, researchers across multiple communities have studied epidemics, among which …

Multi-competitive time-varying networked SIS model with an infrastructure network

S Gracy, JI Caiza, PE Paré, CA Uribe - IFAC Journal of Systems and Control, 2024 - Elsevier
The paper studies the problem of the spread of multi-competitive viruses across a (time-
varying) population network and an infrastructure network. To this end, we devise a variant …

A Stackelberg viral marketing design for two competing players

OL De Silva, VS Varma, M Cao… - IEEE Control …, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
A Stackelberg duopoly model in which two firms compete to maximize their market share is
considered. The firms offer a service/product to customers that are spread over several …

Optimal influence budget allocation for viral marketing using a multiple virus SIS model

In the problem addressed in this paper, a firm proposes a service/product to customers that
are spread over several geographical regions (eg, countries, provinces, or states). Each …
