In this paper, we mainly study the global behaviors of discrete-time epidemic model in heterogenous networks. By theoretical analysis, we show that the model can be characterized by the basic reproduction number R0. When R0 is smaller than unit, the disease-free equilibrium is globally stable, while R0 is larger than unit, the unique positive equilibrium is globally attractive.展开更多
