Characterizing network topology using first-passage analysis

M. S. Chaves, T. G. Mattos, A. P. F. Atman

Understanding the topological characteristics of complex networks and how they affect navigability is one of the most important goals in science today, as it plays a central role i…

A generalised model for asymptotically-scale-free geographical networks

Nicola Cinardi, Andrea Rapisarda, Constantino Tsallis

We consider a generalised d-dimensional model for asymptotically-scale-free geographical networks. Central to many networks of this kind, when considering their growth in time, is…

Dynamical correlations and pairwise theory for the symbiotic contact process on networks

Marcelo M. de Oliveira, Sidiney G. Alves, Silvio C. Ferreira

The two-species symbiotic contact process (2SCP) is a stochastic process where each vertex of a graph may be vacant or host at most one individual of each species. Vertices with bo…

Spectral properties and the accuracy of mean-field approaches for epidemics on correlated networks

Diogo H. Silva, Silvio C. Ferreira, Wesley Cota +2

We present a comparison between stochastic simulations and mean-field theories for the epidemic threshold of the susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) model on correlated networks…

Quantifying echo chamber effects in information spreading over political communication networks

Wesley Cota, Silvio C. Ferreira, Romualdo Pastor-Satorras +1

Echo chambers in online social networks, in which users prefer to interact only with ideologically-aligned peers, are believed to facilitate misinformation spreading and contribute…
