Signed Networks: theory, methods, and applications
Fernando Diaz-Diaz, Elena Candellone, Miguel A. Gonzalez-Casado +4
Signed networks provide a principled framework for representing systems in which interactions are not merely present or absent but qualitatively distinct: friendly or antagonistic,…
Cooperative Behavior in Pre-State Societies: An Agent-Based Approach of the Aksum Civilization
Riccardo Vasellini, Gilda Ferrandino, Luisa Sernicola +2
This study intends to test the hypothesis that, contrary to traditional interpretation, the social structure of the polity of Aksum - especially in its early stages - was not chara…
Evidence of equilibrium dynamics in human social networks evolving in time
Miguel A. González-Casado, Andreia Sofia Teixeira, Angel Sánchez
How do networks of relationships evolve over time? We analyse a dataset tracking the social interactions of 900 individuals over four years. Despite continuous shifts in individual…
Inequality leads to the evolution of intolerance in reputation-based populations
Luis A. Martinez-Vaquero
This work studies the impact of economic inequality on the evolution of intolerance through a reputation-based model of indirect reciprocity. Results show that economic inequality…
Vulnerability of democratic electoral systems
Tomasz Raducha, Jarosław Klamut, Roger Cremades +2
The two most common types of electoral systems (ES) used in electing national legislatures are proportional representation and plurality voting. When they are evaluated, most often…
Temporal clustering of social interactions trades-off disease spreading and knowledge diffusion
Giulia Cencetti, Lorenzo Lucchini, Gabriele Santin +4
Non-pharmaceutical measures such as preventive quarantines, remote working, school and workplace closures, lockdowns, etc. have shown effectivenness from an epidemic control perspe…
Are machine learning technologies ready to be used for humanitarian work and development?
Vedran Sekara, Márton Karsai, Esteban Moro +6
Novel digital data sources and tools like machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) have the potential to revolutionize data about development and can contribute to mo…
Home-to-school pedestrian mobility GPS data from a citizen science experiment in the Barcelona area
Ferran Larroya, Ofelia Díaz, Oleguer Segarra +4
The analysis of pedestrian GPS datasets is fundamental to further advance on the study and the design of walkable cities. The highest resolution GPS data can characterize micro-mob…
Evolutionary games on multilayer networks: coordination and equilibrium selection
Tomasz Raducha, Maxi San Miguel
We study mechanisms of synchronisation, coordination, and equilibrium selection in two-player coordination games on multilayer networks. We apply the approach from evolutionary gam…
Network coevolution drives segregation and enhances Pareto optimal equilibrium selection in coordination games
Miguel A. González Casado, Angel Sánchez, Maxi San Miguel
In this work we assess the role played by the dynamical adaptation of the interactions network, among agents playing Coordination Games, in reaching global coordination and in the…
Behavioral changes during the pandemic worsened income diversity of urban encounters
Takahiro Yabe, Bernardo Garcia Bulle Bueno, Xiaowen Dong +2
Diversity of physical encounters and social interactions in urban environments are known to spur economic productivity and innovation in cities, while also to foster social capital…
Beyond Dunbar circles: a continuous description of social relationships and resource allocation
Ignacio Tamarit, Angel Sánchez, José A. Cuesta
We discuss the structure of human relationship patterns in terms of a new formalism that allows to study resource allocation problems where the cost of the resource may take contin…
Heatmaps in soccer: event vs tracking datasets
D. Garrido, B. Burriel, R. Resta +2
We investigate how similar heatmaps of soccer players are when constructed from (i) event datasets and (ii) tracking datasets. When using event datasets, we show that the scale at…
Structural dynamics of plant-pollinator mutualistic networks
Aniello Lampo, María J. Palazzi, Javier Borge-Holthoefer +1
The discourse surrounding the structural organization of mutualistic interactions mostly revolves around modularity and nestedness. The former is known to enhance the stability of…
Paid and hypothetical time preferences are the same: Lab, field and online evidence
Pablo Brañas-Garza, Diego Jorrat, Antonio M. Espín +1
The use of hypothetical instead of real decision-making incentives remains under debate after decades of economic experiments. Standard incentivized experiments involve substantial…
Lying on networks: The role of structure and topology in promoting honesty
Valerio Capraro, Matjaz Perc, Daniele Vilone
Lies can have a negating impact on governments, companies, and the society as a whole. Understanding the dynamics of lying is therefore of crucial importance across different field…
Steering complex networks toward desired dynamics
Ricardo Gutiérrez, Massimo Materassi, Stefano Focardi +1
We consider networks of dynamical units that evolve in time according to different laws, and are coupled to each other in highly irregular ways. Studying how to steer the dynamics…
The evolution of lying in well-mixed populations
Valerio Capraro, Matjaz Perc, Daniele Vilone
Lies can have profoundly negative consequences for individuals, groups, and even for societies. Understanding how lying evolves and when it proliferates is therefore of significant…
Epistasis between cultural traits drives paradigm shifts in cultural evolution
Ignacio Pascual, Jacobo Aguirre, Susanna Manrubia +1
Every now and then the cultural paradigm of a society changes. Human history can be regarded as a sequence of long periods of cultural stasis punctuated by paradigm shifts that tra…
Power Accretion in Social Systems
Silvia N. Santalla, Kostadin Koroutchev, Elka Korutcheva +1
We consider a model of power distribution in a social system where a set of agents play a simple game on a graph: the probability of winning each round is proportional to the agent…
Humans make best use of social heuristics when confronting hard problems in large groups
Federica Stefanelli, Enrico Imbimbo, Daniele Vilone +3
We report the results of a game-theoretic experiment with human players who solve the problems of increasing complexity by cooperating in groups of increasing size. Our experimenta…
Reputation is required for cooperation to emerge in dynamic networks
Jose A. Cuesta, Carlos Gracia-Lázaro, Yamir Moreno +1
Melamed, Harrell, and Simpson have recently reported on an experiment which appears to show that cooperation can arise in a dynamic network without reputational knowledge, i.e., pu…
Exploring cascading outages and weather via processing historic data
Ian Dobson, NichelleLe K. Carrington, Kai Zhou +3
We describe some bulk statistics of historical initial line outages and the implications for forming contingency lists and understanding which initial outages are likely to lead to…
Resource heterogeneity leads to unjust effort distribution in climate change mitigation
Julian Vicens, Nereida Bueno-Guerra, Mario Gutiérrez-Roig +6
Fighting against climate change is a global challenge shared by nations with heterogeneous economical resources and individuals with diverse propensity for cooperation. However, we…
