Dynamical Analysis of a Mathematical Model of COVID-19 Spreading on Networks

Abstract

In this article, an (Formula presented.) model of COVID-19 epidemic on networks is established and analyzed. Following the method of the next-generation matrix, we derive the basic reproduction number R0, and it shows that the asymptomatic infector plays an important role in disease spreading. We analytically show that the disease-free equilibrium (Formula presented.) is asymptotically stable if (Formula presented.) moreover, the effects of various quarantine strategies are investigated and compared by numerical simulations. The results obtained are informative for us to further understand the asymptomatic infector in COVID-19 propagation and get some effective strategies to control the disease.
