A second-order phase transition in the complete graph stochastic epidemic model

A stochastic model for epidemic spread in a set of individuals placed upon the sites of a complete graph of relations is investigated. The model is defined by three parameters: the number of individuals or sites, N, the probability that an infected site transmits the disease to a susceptible site, α, and the probability of recovery of infected sites, β, both referred to the unit of time.
