Luca Gamberi, Pierpaolo Vivo, Yanik-Pascal Förster +2
The Bradley effect concerns the discrepancy between opinion polls and actual election outcomes that emerges when candidates do not exhibit ideological, sexual or racial mainstream…

Yanik-Pascal Förster, Alessia Annibale, Luca Gamberi +2
We introduce a model for the retrieval of information hidden in legal texts. These are typically organised in a hierarchical (tree) structure, which a reader interested in a given…
Exact and Approximate Mean First Passage Times on Trees and other Necklace Structures: a Local Equilibrium Approach
Yanik-Pascal Förster, Luca Gamberi, Evan Tzanis +2
In this work we propose a novel method to calculate mean first-passage times (MFPTs) for random walks on graphs, based on a dimensionality reduction technique for Markov State Mode…
Maximal modularity and the optimal size of parliaments
Luca Gamberi, Yanik-Pascal Förster, Evan Tzanis +2
An important question in representative democracies is how to determine the optimal parliament size of a given country. According to an old conjecture, known as the cubic root law,…
