Abstract

The spreading of epidemics in complex networks has been a subject of renewed interest of several scientific branches. In this regard, we have focused our attention on the study of the susceptible–infected–susceptible (SIS) model, within a Monte Carlo numerical simulation approach, representing the spreading of epidemics in a clustered homophilic network. The competition between infection and recovery that drives the system either to an absorbing or to an active phase is analyzed. We estimate the static critical exponents β∕ν, 1∕ν and γ∕ν, through finite-size scaling (FSS) analysis of the order parameter ρ and its fluctuations, showing that they differ from those associated with the contact process on a scale-free network, as well as those predicted by the heterogeneous mean-field theory.
