Sampling methods for the quasistationary regime of epidemic processes on regular and complex networks
Renan S. Sander, Guilherme S. Costa, Silvio C. Ferreira
A major hurdle in the simulation of the steady state of epidemic processes is that the system will unavoidably visit an absorbing, disease-free state at sufficiently long times due…

Collective versus hub activation of epidemic phases on networks
Silvio C. Ferreira, Renan S. Sander, Romualdo Pastor-Satorras
We consider a general criterion to discern the nature of the threshold in epidemic models on scale-free (SF) networks. Comparing the epidemic lifespan of the nodes with largest deg…
