Logistic dynamics of small populations with demographic stochasticity
Lucas M. Brugevin, Damián H. Zanette
We study an ecology-inspired model for a population of bounded size, whose dynamics is governed by random birth, death, and immigration events. Stochastic fluctuations in the numbe…
Individual risk-aversion responses tune epidemics to critical transmissibility ()
Susanna Manrubia, Damián H. Zanette
Changes in human behavior are increasingly recognized as a major determinant of epidemic dynamics. Although collective activity can be modified through imposed measures to control…
Avoiding extinction by migration: The case of the head louse
Octavio Cabrera, Damián H. Zanette
The possibility of spreading by migration, colonizing new spatial domains suitable for development and reproduction, can substantially relieve a biological population from the risk…
Contact switching as a control strategy for epidemic outbreaks
Sebastian Risau-Gusman, Damian H. Zanette
We study the effects of switching social contacts as a strategy to control epidemic outbreaks. Connections between susceptible and infective individuals can be broken by either ind…
Infection spreading in a population with evolving contacts
Damian H. Zanette, Sebastian Risau Gusman
We study the spreading of an infection within an SIS epidemiological model on a network. Susceptible agents are given the opportunity of breaking their links with infected agents.…
