Life-time patterns of reinfections: epidemic cohorts as traveling waves

Piergiorgio Castioni, Chiara Poletto, Alex Arenas

Infectious disease models that allow for reinfection, such as the SIS or SIRS frameworks, typically treat all infections as exchangeable and independent, erasing the temporal struc…

Interplay between competitive and cooperative interactions in a three-player pathogen system

Francesco Pinotti, Fakhteh Ghanbarnejad, Philipp Hövel +1

In ecological systems heterogeneous interactions between pathogens take place simultaneously. This occurs, for instance, when two pathogens cooperate, while at the same time multip…

Dynamics of new strain emergence on a temporal network

Sukankana Chakraborty, Xavier R. Hoffmann, Marc G. Leguia +6

Multi-strain competition on networks is observed in many contexts, including infectious disease ecology, information dissemination or behavioral adaptation to epidemics. Despite a…

Epidemic Threshold in Continuous-Time Evolving Networks

Eugenio Valdano, Michele Re Fiorentin, Chiara Poletto +1

Current understanding of the critical outbreak condition on temporal networks relies on approximations (time scale separation, discretization) that may bias the results. We propose…

Human mobility networks and persistence of rapidly mutating pathogens

Alberto Aleta, Andreia N. S. Hisi, Sandro Meloni +3

Rapidly mutating pathogens may be able to persist in the population and reach an endemic equilibrium by escaping hosts' acquired immunity. For such diseases, multiple biological, e…

Impact of spatially constrained sampling of temporal contact networks on the evaluation of the epidemic risk

Christian L. Vestergaard, Eugenio Valdano, Mathieu Génois +3

The ability to directly record human face-to-face interactions increasingly enables the development of detailed data-driven models for the spread of directly transmitted infectious…
