Gathering events, eg, going to gyms and meetings, are ubiquitous and crucial in the
spreading phenomena, which induce higher-order interactions, and thus can be described …

In the past years, network theory has successfully characterized the interaction among the
constituents of a variety of complex systems, ranging from biological to technological, and …

This article reviews and presents various solved and open problems in the development,
analysis, and control of epidemic models. The proper modeling and analysis of spreading …

Smart devices equipped with powerful sensing, computing and networking capabilities have
proliferated lately, ranging from popular smartphones and tablets to Internet appliances …

Several systems can be modeled as sets of interconnected networks or networks with
multiple types of connections, here generally called multilayer networks. Spreading …

This study extends the Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible (SIS) epidemic model for single-
virus propagation over an arbitrary graph to an Susceptible-Infected by virus 1-Susceptible …

An approach to modeling meme diffusion is proposed, drawing on insights from evolutionary
theory, information theory, meme theory, frame analysis, general systems theory, social …

This paper studies a distributed continuous-time bi-virus model in which two competing
viruses spread over a network consisting of multiple groups of individuals. Limiting …

Continuous-time Markov process models of contagions are widely studied, not least
because of their utility in predicting the evolution of real-world contagions and in formulating …

Due to widespread applications, the multi-virus competing spreading dynamics has recently
aroused considerable interests. To our knowledge, all previous competing spreading …
