Description
Summary:The rapid advancement of Internet of Things technologies has significantly enhanced cross-regional communication among geographically and linguistically diverse populations on social platforms yet simultaneously accelerated the propagation of rumors across multilingual networks at unprecedented velocity. Therefore, this study focuses on investigating the spatiotemporal propagation dynamics and cross-lingual diffusion characteristics of rumors. Distinguished from conventional approaches, we innovatively formulate a hybrid dual-layer rumor containment model through a reaction–diffusion framework that explicitly incorporates the coupling control effects of media layers with independent propagation dynamics. Furthermore, we rigorously prove the differentiability of control-to-state mappings, which enables the derivation of necessary optimality conditions for the optimal control problem. Finally, comprehensive simulations validate both the adaptability and effectiveness of our media-based spatiotemporal control strategies in multilingual environments.
