Standard epidemic models exhibit one continuous, second order phase transition to
macroscopic outbreaks. However, interventions to control outbreaks may fundamentally alter …

Advances in mathematical epidemiology have led to a better understanding of the risks
posed by epidemic spreading and informed strategies to contain disease spread. However …

Power-law scalings are ubiquitous to physical phenomena undergoing a continuous phase
transition. The classic susceptible-infectious-recovered (SIR) model of epidemics is one …

During epidemic control, containment of the disease is usually achieved through increasing
a devoted resource to reduce the infectiousness. However, the impact of this resource …

Yet often neglected, dynamical interdependencies between concomitant contagion
processes can alter their intrinsic equilibria and bifurcations. A particular case of interest for …

The dynamics of epidemic spreading is often reduced to the single control parameter R 0
(reproduction-rate), whose value, above or below unity, determines the state of the …

Emerging and re-emerging pathogens exhibit very complex dynamics, are hard to model
and difficult to predict. Their dynamics might appear intractable. However, new statistical …

This work describes a simple agent model for the spread of an epidemic outburst, with
special emphasis on mobility and geographical considerations, which we characterize via …

High impact epidemics constitute one of the largest threats humanity is facing in the 21st
century. In the absence of pharmaceutical interventions, physical distancing together with …
