Energy pathway variety and the progress of the energy transition in European countries
Noam Abadi, Rossana Mastrandrea, Franco Ruzzenenti +1
The integration of new energy forms into existing energy infrastructure has emerged as a critical challenge in the context of the pursuit of a sustainable energy transition. One of…
Weighted network motifs as random walk patterns
Francesco Picciolo, Franco Ruzzenenti, Petter Holme +1
Over the last two decades, network theory has shown to be a fruitful paradigm in understanding the organization and functioning of real-world complex systems. One technique helpful…
A network analysis of the global energy market: an insight on the entanglement between crude oil and the world economy
Franco Ruzzenenti, Francesco Picciolo, Andreas Papandreou
One major hurdle in the road toward a low carbon economy is the present entanglement of developed economies with oil. This tight relationship is mirrored in the correlation between…
How crude oil prices shape the global division of labour
Francesco Picciolo, Andreas Papandreou, Klaus Hubacek +1
Our work sheds new light on the role of oil prices in shaping the world economy by investigating flows of goods and services through global value chains between 1960 and 2011, by m…
Multiplexity and multireciprocity in directed multiplexes
Valerio Gemmetto, Tiziano Squartini, Francesco Picciolo +2
Real-world multi-layer networks feature nontrivial dependencies among links of different layers. Here we argue that, if links are directed, dependencies are twofold. Besides the or…
The role of distances in the World Trade Web
Francesco Picciolo, Tiziano Squartini, Franco Ruzzenenti +2
In the economic literature, geographic distances are considered fundamental factors to be included in any theoretical model whose aim is the quantification of the trade between cou…
Spatial effects in real networks: measures, null models, and applications
Franco Ruzzenenti, Francesco Picciolo, Riccardo Basosi +1
Spatially embedded networks are shaped by a combination of purely topological (space-independent) and space-dependent formation rules. While it is quite easy to artificially genera…
