Hurricanes Increase Climate Change Conversations on Twitter

Maddalena Torricelli, Max Falkenberg, Alessandro Galeazzi +3

The public understanding of climate change plays a critical role in translating climate science into climate action. In the public discourse, climate impacts are often discussed in…

The Systemic Impact of Deplatforming on Social Media

Amin Mekacher, Max Falkenberg, Andrea Baronchelli

Deplatforming, or banning malicious accounts from social media, is a key tool for moderating online harms. However, the consequences of deplatforming for the wider social media eco…

Growing polarisation around climate change on social media

Max Falkenberg, Alessandro Galeazzi, Maddalena Torricelli +8

Climate change and political polarisation are two of the 21st century's critical socio-political issues. Here, we investigate their intersection by studying the discussion around t…

Heterogeneous node copying from hidden network structure

Max Falkenberg

Node copying is an important mechanism for network formation, yet most models assume uniform copying rules. Motivated by observations of heterogeneous triadic closure in real netwo…

Identifying time dependence in network growth

Max Falkenberg, Jong-Hyeok Lee, Shun-ichi Amano +5

Identifying power-law scaling in real networks - indicative of preferential attachment - has proved controversial. Critics argue that measuring the temporal evolution of a network…

Understanding the transition from paroxysmal to persistent atrial fibrillation from micro-anatomical re-entry in a simple model

Alberto Ciacci, Max Falkenberg, Kishan A. Manani +3

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhytmia, characterised by the chaotic motion of electrical wavefronts in the atria. In clinical practice, AF is classified und…

Unified Mechanism of Atrial Fibrillation in a Simple Model

Max Falkenberg, Andrew J. Ford, Anthony C. Li +3

The mechanism of atrial fibrillation (AF) is poorly understood, resulting in disappointing success rates of ablative treatment. Different mechanisms defined largely by different at…
