The inverse problem of finding the optimal network structure for a specific type of dynamical process stands out as one of the most challenging problems in network science. Focusing on the susceptible-infected-susceptible type of dynamics on annealed networks whose structures are fully characterized by the degree distribution, we develop an analytic framework to solve the inverse problem. We find that, for relatively low or high infection rates, the optimal degree distribution is unique, which consists of no more than two distin
