Contact networks have small metric backbones that maintain community structure and are primary transmission subgraphs

2022-02-04

Abstract excerpt

The structure of social networks strongly affects how different phenomena spread in human society, from the transmission of information to the propagation of contagious diseases. It is well-known that heterogeneous connectivity strongly favors spread, but a precise characterization of the redundancy present in social networks and its effect on the robustness of transmission is still lacking. This gap is addressed...
