A dynamic mechanism for prevalence of triangles in competitive networks
M. N. Mooij, M. Baudena, A. S. von der Heydt +2
Triangles are abundant in real-world networks but rare in standard null models for sparse graphs. Existing explanations typically rely on explicit triadic closure mechanisms or geo…

Stable coexistence in indefinitely large systems of competing species
M. N. Mooij, M. Baudena, A. S. von der Heydt +1
The Lotka-Volterra system is a set of ordinary differential equations describing growth of interacting ecological species. This model has gained renewed interest in the context of…
