Abstract: In the research of network structure, long ties are considered to be a hidden but valuable interaction. In this paper, we innovatively interpret the long ties structure in traditional research as a higher-order information spreading path. It effectively avoids the homogenization of information level and redundancy of network structure. The spreading bridge model based on high-order long ties structure is established accordingly. Modern online social behavior is modeled by establishing spreading expansion rate and spreading diffusion rate to improve model adaptability. The spread dynamics model based on multivariate interactions is developed by combining direct-linked spread as a binary interaction relationship in traditional research with bridge-linked spread. The validity of the model is verified by comparing the model simulation results with real cases.
