Errata for Mathematics of Epidemics on Networks

This errata is limited to errors that are significant enough to cause confusion.

If you believe you have found an error:

If it is a minor typo that won't cause confusion for others (e.g., obvious misspelling, inconsequential punctuation error), please report it here.
If it is major enough that it should be on this page, please check if it is already on this list and if not open a new issue here (use the green "New Issue" button).

Dedication

$ϵ_{2}$ should be "Matilda"

Chapter 1

Figure 1.4(b) has an error. The final size should be quite a bit below 1.

Chapter 2

In Proposition 2.4, in equations for $k = 1, . . ., N - 1$ , the value $Y_{2}^{0}$ should be interpreted as the same as $Y^{0}$ and $Y_{1}^{N}$ should be interpreted as the same as $Y^{N}$ .

Chapter 3

In Equation 3.5(d), there should be an additional 2 terms: $+ γ_{i}$ < $I_{i} S_{j}$ > $+ γ_{j}$ < $S_{i} I_{j}$ >.

Chapter 4

In section 4.2.3 (Clustered pairwise model), the modified scaling factor should be $\frac{n [S]^{2} [I] [A I]}{([S S] [I] + [S] [I I]) [A] [S I]}$ instead of $\frac{n [S] [I] [A I]}{([S S] [I] + [S] [I I]) [A] [S I]}$ .
In Figure 4.7c: $τ$ is actually $1.1 τ_{c}$ , not $1.2 τ_{c}$
In Figure 4.11: $τ$ is not $2 τ_{c}$ . It is actually $1.5 τ_{c} = 1.5 γ / < K >$ (the factor of 2 should be 1.5)

Chapter 5

In Figure 5.2c the label $1.2 τ$ should be $1.1 τ$ .

Chapter 6

In Figure 6.7, it was not made clear that the percolation is performed by taking a single network for each $N$ , giving each edge a weight uniformly in $(0, 1)$ and then as $p$ decreases from $1$ , removing an edge when $p$ crosses its weight.
equation 6.8a, $ξ$ should be $ζ$ .
In the displayed equation for example 6.3 $ξ$ should be $ζ$
In Theorem 6.17, |H_{IN}]|+|H_{OUT}| in the right-hand side of the upper equation (for epidemic probability) should be |H_{IN}]|+|H_{SCC}|.

Chapter 7

On page 255, the last paragraph of the introduction should note that the (PW) model is system (5.15), the ED model is system (5.38) and the EBCM model is system (6.12).
