In this paper, based on susceptible–infected–susceptible (SIS) scheme, we introduce a framework that allows us to describe the spreading dynamics of two interacting diseases with active nodes. Different from previous studies, the two different diseases, propagating concurrently on the same population, can interact with each other by modifying their transmission rates. Meanwhile, according to certain probabilities, each node on the complex networks rotates between active state and inactive state. Based on heterogeneous mean-field approach, we analyze the epidemic thresholds of the two diseases and compute the temporal evolution characterizing the spreading dynamics. In addition, we validate these theoretical predictions by numerical simulations with phase diagrams. Results show that the secondary thresholds for the two opposite scenarios (mutual enhancement scenario and mutual impairment scenario) are different. We also find that the value of critical threshold and the final size of spreading dynamics are reduced as the node activity rate decreases.

A modified spreading dynamic model with feedback-mechanism based on scale-free networks is presented in this study. Using the mean field theory, the spreading dynamics of the model is analyzed. The spreading threshold and equilibriums are derived. The relationship between the spreading threshold, the epidemic steady-state and the feedback-mechanism is analyzed in detail. Theoretical results indicate the feedback-mechanism can increase the spreading threshold, resulting in effectively controlling the epidemic spreading.

Abstract To study the impact of protection and hospital quarantine measure, government pre-warning mechanism and heterogeneity of underlying networks on epidemic spreading, a novel SEAIRS epidemic model is proposed on scale-free networks. The spreading dynamics of the model is studied by means of the mean-field theory. Two equilibriums and the basic reproductive number R0 of the model is analyzed in detail. The global asymptotic stability of the disease-free equilibrium, the permanence of the epidemic spreading and the global attractivity of the endemic equilibrium are proved. Sensitivity analysis shows that the basic reproductive number R0 is dependent on the coverage rate of home quarantine (ωQ,ηA ,ηS ), hospitalization rate η1 and government pre-warning intensity δ . Finally, the theoretical analysis results are confirmed by means of numerical simulations.

Taking into account the heterogeneity of the underlying networks, an epidemic model with feedback-mechanism, time delay and migrations of individuals on scale-free networks is presented. First, the epidemic dynamics is analyzed via the mean field theory. The spreading critical threshold and equilibriums are derived. The existence of endemic equilibrium is determined by the spreading threshold. Then, the influences of feedback-mechanism, time delay, migrations of individuals and the heterogeneity of the scale-free networks on the spreading threshold and the epidemic steady-state are studied in detail. Numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the results with the theoretical analysis.

In this paper, we propose a model where two strains compete with each other at the expense of common susceptible individuals on heterogeneous networks by using pair-wise approximation closed by the probability-generating function (PGF). All of the strains obey the susceptible–infected–recovered (SIR) mechanism. From a special perspective, we first study the dynamical behaviour of an SIR model closed by the PGF, and obtain the basic reproduction number via two methods. Then we build a model to study the spreading dynamics of competing viruses and discuss the conditions for the local stability of equilibria, which is different from the condition obtained by using the heterogeneous mean-field approach. Finally, we perform numerical simulations on Barabási–Albert networks to complement our theoretical research, and show some dynamical properties of the model with competing viruses. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Mathematical methods in medicine: neuroscience, cardiology and pathology’.

AbstractUsing mean field approach, we provide analytical and numerical solution of the symmetric Anderson lattice for arbitrary dimension at half filling. The symmetric Anderson lattice is equivalent to the Kondo lattice, which makes it possible to study the behavior of an electron liquid in the Kondo lattice. We have shown that, due to hybridization (through an effective field due to localized electrons) of electrons with different spins and momenta $$\mathbf{k} $$ k and $$\mathbf{k} +\overrightarrow{\pi }$$ k + π → , the gap in the electron spectrum opens at half filling. Such hybridization breaks the conservation of the total magnetic momentum of electrons, the spontaneous symmetry is broken. The state of electron liquid is characterized by a large Fermi surface. A gap in the spectrum is calculated depending on the magnitude of the on-site Coulomb repulsion and value of s–d hybridization for the chain, as well as for square and cubic lattices. Anomalous behavior of the heat capacity at low temperatures in the gapped state, which is realized in the symmetric Anderson lattice, was also found.
