Epidemic spreading on multigraphs
Paulo H. Lorenzoni, Wesley Cota, Francisco A. Rodrigues +1
Multigraphs are graphs in which multiple links between pairs of nodes are allowed, whereas they are forbidden in simple graphs, the latter being widely used in network science. Sim…

Impacts of bridging nodes on the epidemic activation mechanisms
José Carlos M. Silva, Diogo H. Silva, Wesley Cota +2
Bridging nodes, which connect critical components of a network, play an important role in maintaining structural integrity and facilitating communication within the network, repres…

Efficient Gillespie algorithms for spreading phenomena in large and heterogeneous higher-order networks
Hugo P. Maia, Wesley Cota, Yamir Moreno +1
Higher-order interactions, where groups of nodes interact collectively rather than pairwisely, are central to many complex systems, from neural and ecological networks to social co…
