Dynamic Landscapes: A Model of Context and Contingency in Evolution
David V. Foster, Mary M. Rorick, Tanja Gesell +2
The basic mechanics of evolution have been understood since Darwin. But debate continues over whether macroevolutionary phenomena are driven primary by the fitness structure of gen…
Sampling properties of directed networks
Seung-Woo Son, Claire Christensen, Golnoosh Bizhani +3
For many real-world networks only a small "sampled" version of the original network may be investigated; those results are then used to draw conclusions about the actual system. Va…
Clustering Drives Assortativity and Community Structure in Ensembles of Networks
David V. Foster, Jacob G. Foster, Peter Grassberger +1
Clustering, assortativity, and communities are key features of complex networks. We probe dependencies between these attributes and find that ensembles with strong clustering displ…
Lower Bounds on Mutual Information
David V. Foster, Peter Grassberger
We correct claims about lower bounds on mutual information (MI) between real-valued random variables made in A. Kraskov {\it et al.}, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 69}, 066138 (2004). We show…
Clustering Phase Transitions and Hysteresis: Pitfalls in Constructing Network Ensembles
David V. Foster, Jacob G. Foster, Maya Paczuski +1
Ensembles of networks are used as null models in many applications. However, simple null models often show much less clustering than their real-world counterparts. In this paper, w…
Edge direction and the structure of networks
Jacob G. Foster, David V. Foster, Peter Grassberger +1
Directed networks are ubiquitous and are necessary to represent complex systems with asymmetric interactions---from food webs to the World Wide Web. Despite the importance of edge…
