Abstract: Considering that the exposed nodes may become the removed nodes at a rate, we present a novel rumor propagation SEIR model on heterogeneous network. We give formula of the rumor spreading threshold for the model and analyze the globally dynamical behaviors of the rumor free equilibrium set. Meanwhile, we discuss two immunization strategies for the rumor spreading. Numerical simulations are given to demonstrate the main results.
