Phase diagrams of interacting spreading dynamics in complex networks
Liming Pan, Dan Yang, Wei Wang, Shimin Cai, Tao Zhou, Ying-Cheng Lai
Abstract
The authors develop a theory for coevolving spreading dynamics on complex networks through the approach of dimension reduction for complex networks. The theory predicts phase transitions and the interplay between discontinuous outbreak transition and hysteresis as well as the emergence of tri-critical points
