Containment of contagious processes on temporal networks via adaptive edge rewiring — •Vitaly Belik1,2, Florian Fiebig1, and Philipp Hövel1 — 1Institut für Theoretische Physik, TU Berlin — 2Helmholtz-Zentrum für Infektionsforschung, Braunschweig
We consider a recurrent contagious process spreading on a time-varying network topology. As a containment measure we propose an adaptive rewiring mechanism: after detection of the disease, to temporary isolate infected nodes, rewiring the incoming edges away from those nodes. As a case study we use the network of animal trade in Germany. One of the main results reveals heterogeneous performance of adaptation in respect to different index nodes (where epidemic initially started): some index nodes lead to easily controllable epidemics and some not. Our findings are important for designing response strategies for infectious diseases management.
