Decelerated spreading in degree-correlated networks

While degree correlations are known to play a crucial role for spreading phenomena in networks, their impact on the propagation speed has hardly been understood. Here we investigate a tunable spreading model on scale-free networks and show that the propagation becomes slow in positively (negatively)...
