Spatial scales of COVID-19 transmission in Mexico

Brennan Klein, Harrison Hartle, Munik Shrestha +13

During outbreaks of emerging infectious diseases, internationally connected cities often experience large and early outbreaks, while rural regions follow after some delay. This hie…

Global city densities: re-examining urban scaling theory

Joseph R. Burger, Jordan G. Okie, Ian Hatton +10

Understanding scaling relations of social and environmental attributes of urban systems is necessary for effectively managing cities. Urban scaling theory (UST) has assumed that po…

The Interhospital Transfer Network for Very Low Birth Weight Infants in the United States

Munik Shrestha, Samuel V. Scarpino, Erika M. Edwards +2

Very low birth weight (VLBW) infants require specialized care in neonatal intensive care units. In the United States (U.S.), such infants frequently are transferred between hospita…

Exotic phase transitions of k-cores in clustered networks

Uttam Bhat, Munik Shrestha, Laurent Hébert-Dufresne

The giant -core --- maximal connected subgraph of a network where each node has at least neighbors --- is important in the study of phase transitions and in applications of…

A message-passing approach for recurrent-state epidemic models on networks

Munik Shrestha, Samuel V. Scarpino, Cristopher Moore

Epidemic processes are common out-of-equilibrium phenomena of broad interdisciplinary interest. Recently, dynamic message-passing (DMP) has been proposed as an efficient algorithm…

A message-passing approach for threshold models of behavior in networks

Munik Shrestha, Cristopher Moore

We study a simple model of how social behaviors, like trends and opinions, propagate in networks where individuals adopt the trend when they are informed by threshold neighbors…

Stability analysis of financial contagion due to overlapping portfolios

Fabio Caccioli, Munik Shrestha, Cristopher Moore +1

Common asset holdings are widely believed to have been the primary vector of contagion in the recent financial crisis. We develop a network approach to the amplification of financi…
