In this paper, the interplay of epidemic spreading and the strategy-mixed awareness diffusion within the framework of multiplex networks is studied. In the model, epidemics can spread through a physical-contact layer and the awareness can diffuse through a virtual-contact layer. Each node on physical-contact layer is randomly matched one-to-one with a node of virtual-contact layer, but the connectivity is distinct in each of them. In view of the complexity of human behaviors, we assume that the diffusion of awareness is ruled by two mixed contagion dynamics: a fraction [Formula: see text] of individuals adopt the herd-like dynamics and the others follow the epidemic-like dynamics. We analyze the epidemic threshold based on the microscopic Markov chain approach. Meanwhile, combing with the Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, we show that the strategy-mixed awareness diffusion mechanism can enrich the dynamics of epidemic spreading, including the crossover phenomenon of the final epidemic size, the two-stage effect of the local awareness rate, and so forth.

多路网络上流行病传播与策略混合意识传播的相互作用

本文研究了多路网络框架内流行病传播与策略混合意识传播的相互作用。在模型中，流行病可以通过物理接触层传播，意识可以通过虚拟接触层传播。物理接触层上的每个节点都与虚拟接触层上的节点一一对应地随机匹配，但每个节点的连通性是不同的。鉴于人类行为的复杂性，我们假设意识的传播受两种混合传染动力学支配：一小部分[公式：见正文]个体采用群体动力学，其他个体遵循流行动力学。我们基于微观马尔可夫链方法分析流行阈值。同时，结合蒙特卡洛（MC）模拟，
