Steering dynamic network centrality via control theory

Fabio Durastante, Beatrice Meini, Luca Saluzzi

Time-evolving networks, or temporal networks, play a crucial role in modeling dynamic interactions across various domains, including biology, social sciences, and information techn…

Advances on the recovery of (perturbed) Cauchy matrices

Paola Boito, Dario Fasino, Beatrice Meini

Given a (possibly approximate) Cauchy matrix, how can we efficiently compute its generators? Expanding on previous work by Liesen and Luce [Linear Algebra Appl. 493 (2016) 261--280…

Nearest Reversible Markov Chains with Sparsity Constraints: An Optimization Approach

Stefano Cipolla, Fabio Durastante, Miryam Gnazzo +1

Reversibility is a key property of Markov chains, central to algorithms such as Metropolis-Hastings and other MCMC methods. Yet many applications yield non-reversible chains, motiv…

Kemeny's constant minimization for reversible Markov chains via structure-preserving perturbations

Fabio Durastante, Miryam Gnazzo, Beatrice Meini

Kemeny's constant measures the efficiency of a Markov chain in traversing its states. We investigate whether structure-preserving perturbations to the transition probabilities of a…

A Riemannian Optimization Approach for Finding the Nearest Reversible Markov Chain

Fabio Durastante, Miryam Gnazzo, Beatrice Meini

We address the algorithmic problem of determining the reversible Markov chain that is closest to a given Markov chain , with an identical stationary distribution. Mor…

Enforcing Katz and PageRank Centrality Measures in Complex Networks

Stefano Cipolla, Fabio Durastante, Beatrice Meini

We investigate the problem of enforcing a desired centrality measure in complex networks, while still keeping the original pattern of the network. Specifically, by representing the…

Stochastic th root approximation of a stochastic matrix: A Riemannian optimization approach

Fabio Durastante, Beatrice Meini

We propose two approaches, based on Riemannian optimization, for computing a stochastic approximation of the th root of a stochastic matrix . In the first approach, the appro…
