Spontaneous symmetry breaking and discontinuous phase transition for spreading dynamics in multiplex networks [PDF]
New J. Phys. 20 (2018) 125006, 2019 We propose a spreading model in multilayer networks and study the nature of nonequilibrium phase transition in the model. The model integrates the susceptible-infected-susceptible (or susceptible-infected-recovered) spreading dynamics with a biased diffusion process among different layers.
