Abstract

For understanding the influence of malware attacking on complex heterogeneous networks, this work studies a fractional network-based SIRS epidemic model with fuzzy transmission and saturated treatment function. Firstly, we apply the next-generation method to obtain the basic reproductive ratio $\mathcal{R}_0$, that is an important threshold value in the investigation of asymptotic behavior of the proposed epidemic model. The obtained theoretical results indicates that the value $\mathcal{R}_0$ significantly depends on the topology structure of the underlying network and the malware load. In addition, we give a threshold value $\tilde{\mathcal{R}}_0>\mathcal{R}_0$ that not only determines the existence of endemic equilibrium  $\mathbf{E}_\ast$ but also ensures the clean of malware programs on the network. At last, the sensitivity analysis of the threshold value $\mathcal{R}_0$ and some graphical simulations are presented to illustrate for the theoretical results.
