Spatially dense stochastic epidemic models with infection-age dependent infectivity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
We study an individual-based stochastic spatial epidemic model where the number of locations and the number of individuals at each location both grow to infinity. Each individual is associated with a random infection-age dependent infectivity function. Individuals are infected through interactions across the locations with heterogeneous effects.

A re-entrant phase transition in the survival of secondary infections on networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We study the dynamics of secondary infections on networks, in which only the individuals currently carrying a certain primary infection are susceptible to the secondary infection. In the limit of large sparse networks, the model is mapped to a branching process spreading in a random time-sensitive environment, determined by the dynamics of the ...
