Fundamentals of spreading processes in single and multilayer complex networks

GF de Arruda, FA Rodrigues, Y Moreno - Physics Reports, 2018 - Elsevier
Spreading processes have been largely studied in the literature, both analytically and by
means of large-scale numerical simulations. These processes mainly include the …

Mathematics of epidemics on networks

IZ Kiss, JC Miller, PL Simon - Cham: Springer, 2017 - Springer
Over the past decade, the use of networks has led to a new modelling paradigm combining
several branches of science, including physics, mathematics, biology and social sciences …

Cybersecurity insurance: Modeling and pricing

M Xu, L Hua - North American Actuarial Journal, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
Cybersecurity risk has attracted considerable attention in recent decades. However, the
modeling of cybersecurity risk is still in its infancy, mainly because of its unique …

Disease localization in multilayer networks

GF de Arruda, E Cozzo, TP Peixoto, FA Rodrigues… - Physical Review X, 2017 - APS
We present a continuous formulation of epidemic spreading on multilayer networks using a
tensorial representation, extending the models of monoplex networks to this context. We …

Pricing of cyber insurance contracts in a network model

MA Fahrenwaldt, S Weber, K Weske - … Bulletin: The Journal of the IAA, 2018 - cambridge.org
We develop a novel approach for pricing cyber insurance contracts. The considered cyber
threats, such as viruses and worms, diffuse in a structured data network. The spread of the …

Accuracy criterion for the mean-field approximation in susceptible-infected-susceptible epidemics on networks

P Van Mieghem, R Van de Bovenkamp - Physical Review E, 2015 - APS
Mean-field approximations (MFAs) are frequently used in physics. When a process (such as
an epidemic or a synchronization) on a network is approximated by MFA, a major hurdle is …

Metapopulation persistence in random fragmented landscapes

J Grilli, G Barabás, S Allesina - PLoS computational biology, 2015 - journals.plos.org
Habitat destruction and land use change are making the world in which natural populations
live increasingly fragmented, often leading to local extinctions. Although local populations …

Unified mean-field framework for susceptible-infected-susceptible epidemics on networks, based on graph partitioning and the isoperimetric inequality

K Devriendt, P Van Mieghem - Physical Review E, 2017 - APS
We propose an approximation framework that unifies and generalizes a number of existing
mean-field approximation methods for the susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) epidemic …

Recurrent dynamic message passing with loops for epidemics on networks

F Gao, J Liu, Y Zhao - Chaos, Solitons & Fractals, 2024 - Elsevier
Several theoretical methods have been developed to approximate the prevalence and
threshold of epidemics in networks. Among them, the recurrent dynamic message-passing …
