This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Mathematical Sciences, with the CFDA number 47.049, provides $200,000 in funding to Michigan State University (MSU) to establish a theoretical framework for characterizing information propagation within social systems. The research aims to develop novel models and strategies for analyzing large spatiotemporal datasets related to the diffusion of information, such as news, diseases, and security threats. The project will leverage edge-based differential equations on metric graphs to capture the dynamics of information diffusion across distinct yet correlated communication channels. This work will contribute to advancing the field of information diffusion research and support the nation's health, prosperity, and welfare. Additionally, the project will provide educational activities to engage K-12, undergraduate, and graduate students, particularly those from underrepresented groups, in STEM disciplines and help develop the next generation of STEM professionals.
