How hate spreads online and why it returns: Re-entrant phases driven by collective behavior
Chen Xu, Pak Ming Hui, Chenkai Xia +1
The 2025 Bondi Beach mass-shooting was perpetrated by individuals inspired by ISIS (Islamic State) propaganda that increasingly featured anti-Semitic hate content following the Oct…
Entanglement Growth from Structured Initial States in Many-Body Localized Systems
Chen Xu, Pengfei Zhang
Understanding how complex entanglement structures emerge is a central problem in quantum many-body physics. Recent work by Zhang et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 137, 020404 (2026)] has co…
Preventing the Spread of Online Harms: Physics of Contagion across Multi-Platform Social Media and Metaverses
Chen Xu, Pak Ming Hui, Om K. Jha +2
We present a minimal yet empirically-grounded theory for the spread of online harms (e.g. misinformation, hate) across current multi-platform social media and future Metaverses. Ne…
Adaptive cyclically dominating game on co-evolving networks: Numerical and analytic results
Chi Wun Choi, Chen Xu, Pak Ming Hui
A co-evolving and adaptive Rock (R)-Paper (P)-Scissors (S) game (ARPS) in which an agent uses one of three cyclically dominating strategies is proposed and studied numerically and…
Atypical viral dynamics from transport through popular places
Pedro D. Manrique, Chen Xu, Pak Ming Hui +1
The flux of visitors through popular places undoubtedly influences viral spreading -- from H1N1 and Zika viruses spreading through physical spaces such as airports, to rumors and i…
Anomalous Contagion and Renormalization in Dynamical Networks with Nodal Mobility
Pedro D. Manrique, Hong Qi, Minzhang Zheng +3
The common real-world feature of individuals migrating through a network -- either in real space or online -- significantly complicates understanding of network processes. Here we…
