Abstract How the microscopic structure of complex network takes influence on the epidemic propagation is investigated. Special attention is paid to the growing network where its average degree changes with time. A formula for the final density of infected individuals is given and is confirmed by numerical simulations. Our results show that the final density of refractory increases nonlinearly with both the average degree of nodes and the adjustable random parameter of network structure.
