Domination-time dynamics in susceptible-infected-susceptible virus competition on networks

Abstract: When two viruses compete for healthy nodes in a simple network and both spreading rates are above the epidemic threshold, only one virus will survive. However, if we prevent the viruses from dying out, rich dynamics emerge. When both viruses are identical, one virus always dominates the other, but the dominating and dominated virus alternate. We show in the complete graph that the domination time depends on the total number of infected nodes at the beginning of the domination period and, moreover, that the dis… Show more

“…Once the two competing SIS epidemics have partial immunizing functions, there is a coexistence region of the two epidemics [109]. Bovenkamp et al studied two competing SIS epidemics on a complete network [110], and revealed that only one epidemic exists when the transmission probability is above the epidemic threshold, which is markedly different from the observations of competing SIR epidemics. Disallowing epidemic extension by allowing one node to become infected automatically when there are no infected nodes, the dominant and dominated epidemics alternate when the two epidemics are identical.…”

“…A common assumption is that spreading processes can become extinct; in this case, one process will dominate the other one even when the diffusion rates of both of them are above the epidemic threshold [129]. Recently, in [130] the authors relax this assumption and address the domination time. They find that it depends on the number of infected nodes at the beginning of the domination period.…”
