Branching process model Timming dd+1 generation Generation time T Distribution G()=Pr(T) tt+T1t+T2t+T3 time
Branching process model • The process start with a node (d=0) that generates k sons with probability distribution pk. • Each son at generation 0<d<D generates k-1 new sons with probability kpk/<k>. • Nodes at generation D does not generate any son. • The generation times are independent random variables with distribution function G().

Conclusions • Truncated branching processes are a suitable framework to model spreading processess on real networks. • There are two spreading regimes. • Exponential growth. • Polynomial growth followed by an exponential decay. • The time scale separating them is determined by D/R. • The small-world property and the connectivity fluctuations favor the polynomial regime. • Intermediate states favor the exponential regime.
