Analysis of the impact of mask-wearing in viral spread: Implications for COVID-19

Published in 2021 American Control Conference (ACC), 2021

In this paper, we propose a model of population heterogeneity over monoplex complex networks. Population heterogeneity describes the intrinsic difference of individuals in the population, leading to semi-directional bond percolation. This paper provides analytical solutions and analysis where the number of node type is two.
