✦ Synopsis

We analyse the dynamics of the SIS and Reed-Frost models on complex networks. In contrast to most of the previous analytical work which relied on mean-field approximations and simulations, we present a probabilistic approach whereby general results are derived and illustrated on various families of graphs.
