Summary: This study investigates the interaction between epidemic spread and the diffusion of epidemic-related information using a coupled susceptible-infected-vaccinated-recovered/unaware-aware-unaware (SIRV-UAU) model, considering individual social differences. The results show that increasing social reinforcement strength, primary spreading rate, or the influence factor of uploading information can promote information diffusion and inhibit the spread of the epidemic. The impact of the influence factor of individuals uploading information is found to be significant. Moreover, the reduction factor and social reinforcement strength have an effect on the spread of the epidemic.

Summary: This study presents a model for epidemic spreading in temporal networks of mobile agents that incorporates local behavioral responses. It shows that the mechanism of behavioral responses can effectively reduce the spread of disease when the spatial density of agents is low, but it can cause an abrupt phase transition and the emergence of a new bistable phase at higher densities. The study also characterizes the temporal networks formed in the fast mobility regime and examines how the behavioral mechanism affects degree distributions and other metrics.

Summary: In this paper, a novel weighted co-evolving multiplex network model is proposed to describe the interaction between information diffusion in online social networks and epidemic spreading in adaptive physical contact networks. The simulation results show that the maximum infection scale decreases as the information acceptance probability grows, and the final infection decreases as the rewiring behaviors increase. Interestingly, an infection peak appears in our model due to the interaction between information diffusion and epidemic spread.

Summary: This study proposes an aware-susceptible-infected model (ASI) to examine the impact of information literacy on the spreading process in multiplex networks using the microscopic Markov chain method. The results show that individuals with high information literacy are more responsive to information adoption. Additionally, the effectiveness of epidemic information in suppressing transmission depends on individuals' abilities to translate awareness into protective behaviors and varies according to community characteristics. This study highlights the importance of individual heterogeneity in information literacy in epidemic spreading within different communities.

Summary: Recent studies have found that real-world systems can be described using multi-layer complex networks. This paper introduces a traffic-driven SIR epidemic spreading model on a logical-physical layered network. The study investigates the features of epidemic spreading on a layered network based on the density of infected and recovered nodes. The results show that traffic flow significantly affects the intensity and scope of epidemic spreading. Comparing the effects of different types of two-layer networks on epidemic spreading, it is found that homogenous logical or physical network structures promote epidemic spread more than heterogeneous networks. This work could contribute to the design of traffic-driven epidemic prevention and control strategies.

Summary: Complex networks, derived from the observation and analysis of real-world networks, include biological networks focusing on connections and interfaces like epidemic models. Fuzzy logic, a powerful mathematical tool, deals with imprecision and aims to provide low-cost solutions to real-world problems. Fuzzy-based simulation scenarios for HIV spreading in a population of needle drug users demonstrate the importance of fuzziness in analyzing disease spread.

Summary: In this study, a two-layer network-based epidemic spreading model was proposed to investigate the influence of individuals with different properties in the awareness layer on disease transmission. It was found that individuals with high centrality in the awareness layer significantly inhibit the spread of infectious diseases, while individuals with low centrality in the awareness layer have an approximately linear effect on the number of infected individuals.

Summary: We investigate the effect of degree correlation on a susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) model with a nonlinear cooperative effect. Regardless of synergy, positive and negative degree correlation in the model reduces and raises the epidemic threshold, respectively. For networks with a strongly positive degree correlation, the model predicts the emergence of two discontinuous jumps in the steady-state infected density.

Summary: The study explores the impact of seeds on cooperative epidemic spreading on complex networks, showing continuous phase transition of node infection proportions on different networks with selection strategy not altering the transition types. Eigenvector centrality promotes cooperative spreading on artificial networks, while degree centrality promotes the spread of two cooperative diseases on real-world networks.

Summary: In this paper, a three-layer coupled network model is established to analyze the co-evolution of negative vaccine-related information, vaccination behavior, and epidemic spread. The study reveals that the proportion of vaccinated individuals and the topology of the epidemic spread layer play crucial roles in determining the epidemic threshold. Simulation experiments further investigate the impact of various factors on epidemic spread, including negative vaccine-related information diffusion, rational judgment, herd mentality, and vaccine cost.

Summary: This study aims to investigate the effects of dynamic multi-source information and behavioral responses on the co-evolution of epidemic and information in time-varying multiplex networks. The UAU-SIS model with time-varying self-awareness and behavioral responses is proposed, and the analytical epidemic thresholds for the model are derived. Experimental results show that time-varying behavioral responses can effectively suppress the epidemic spread, while time-varying self-awareness only reduces the scale of the spread. The role of dynamical multi-source information in suppressing epidemic spread is limited.

Summary: Evolutionary epidemiological models have been used to analyze contagious diseases and intervention policies in biology. The SVITR epidemic dynamic model is developed by adding compartments for treatment and vaccination. The study considers the rates at which infected individuals enter the treatment and recover state, and uses evolutionary game theory to investigate the rate of change from susceptible to vaccinated and infected to treatment. Numerical simulation suggests that effective vaccination and treatment can reduce the community risk of infection.

Summary: The study introduces a new coupled epidemic-awareness model in multiplex networks, considering both asymptomatic state and self-initiated awareness mechanism. Findings suggest that asymptomatic state leads to underestimation of disease risk, resulting in epidemic outbreak, while the self-initiated mechanism plays a positive role in controlling the epidemic.

Summary: In this study, we investigate random walks on complex networks with stochastic resetting that is dependent on the nodes. By employing a renewal approach, we derive precise expressions for the stationary occupation probabilities of the walker on each node and the mean first passage time between any two nodes. We validate our theoretical findings by conducting numerical simulations on three networks with two different resetting protocols. We discover that, under appropriate settings, optimizing the efficiency of a global search on such networks can be achieved through node-dependent resetting probability.
