We introduce an interacting particle system that models the spread of an epidemic in terms of heterogeneous diffusive dynamics, rather than exogenous contact and transmission rates at the population level as in classical compartmental…
The pair contact process (PCP) is a nonequilibrium stochastic model which, like the basic contact process (CP), exhibits a phase transition to an absorbing state. The two models belong to the directed percolation (DP) universality class,…
Stochastic modeling of disease dynamics has had a long tradition. Among the first epidemic models including a spatial structure in the form of local interactions is the contact process. In this article we investigate two extensions of the…
We consider the Diffusive Epidemic Process (DEP), a two-species reaction-diffusion process originally proposed to model disease spread within a population. This model exhibits a phase transition from an active epidemic to an absorbing state…
The critical behavior of the non-diffusive susceptible-infected-recovered model on lattices had been well established in virtue of its duality symmetry. By performing simulations and scaling analyses for the diffusive variant on the…
The present paper is devoted to the investigation of the long time dynamics for a double free boundary system with nonlocal diffusions, which models the infectious diseases transmitted via digestive system such as fecal-oral diseases,…
We study three classes of continuous time Markov processes (inclusion process, exclusion process, independent walkers) and a family of interacting diffusions (Brownian energy process). For each model we define a boundary driven process…
We study the two-dimensional contact process (CP) with quenched disorder (DCP), and determine the static critical exponents beta and nu_perp. The dynamic behavior is incompatible with scaling, as applied to models (such as the pure CP) that…
Discontinuous percolation transitions and the associated tricritical points are manifest in a wide range of both equilibrium and non-equilibrium cooperative phenomena. To demonstrate this, we present and relate the continuous and first…
Networks of contacts capable of spreading infectious diseases are often observed to be highly heterogeneous, with the majority of individuals having fewer contacts than the mean, and a significant minority having relatively very many…
We present quasi-stationary simulations of three-dimensional models with a single absorbing configuration, namely the contact process (CP), the susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) model and the contact replication process (CRP). The…
It is known that diffusion provokes substantial changes in continuous absorbing phase transitions. Conversely, its effect on discontinuous transitions is much less understood. In order to shed light in this direction, we study the inclusion…
We introduce the generalized diffusive epidemic process, which is a metapopulation model for an epidemic outbreak where a non-sedentary population of walkers can jump along lattice edges with diffusion rates $D_S$ or $D_I$ if they are…
The contact process is a stochastic process which exhibits a continuous, absorbing-state phase transition in the Directed Percolation (DP) universality class. In this work, we consider a contact process with a bias in conjunction with an…
Phase transitions from an active into an absorbing, inactive state are generically described by the critical exponents of directed percolation (DP), with upper critical dimension d_c = 4. In the framework of single-species…
We prove a duality between the asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) with non-conservative open boundary conditions and an asymmetric exclusion process with particle-dependent hopping rates and conservative reflecting boundaries. This…
A class of two-species ({\it three-states}) bimolecular diffusion-limited models of classical particles with hard-core reacting and diffusing in a hypercubic lattice of arbitrary dimension is investigated. The manifolds on which the…
We review the critical behavior of nonequilibrium systems, such as directed percolation (DP) and branching-annihilating random walks (BARW), which possess phase transitions into absorbing states. After reviewing the bulk scaling behavior of…
We study two simple mathematical models of the epidemic. At first, we study the repetitive infection spreading in a simplified SIRS model including the effect of the decay of the acquired immune. The model is an intermediate model of the…
Percolation theory dictates an intuitive picture depicting correlated regions in complex systems as densely connected clusters. While this picture might be adequate at small scales and apart from criticality, we show that highly correlated…
