Critical behavior of cascading failures in overloaded networks
Ignacio A. Perez, Dana Ben Porath, Cristian E. La Rocca +2
While network abrupt breakdowns due to overloads and cascading failures have been studied extensively, the critical exponents and the universality class of such phase transitions h…
Epidemic control in networks with cliques
L. D. Valdez, L. Vassallo, L. A. Braunstein
Social units, such as households and schools, can play an important role in controlling epidemic outbreaks. In this work, we study an epidemic model with a prompt quarantine measur…
Peak fraction of infected in epidemic spreading for multi-community networks
Jing Ma, Xiangyi Meng, Lidia A. Braunstein
One of the most effective strategies to mitigate the global spreading of a pandemic (e.g., COVID-19) is to shut down international airports. From a network theory perspective, this…
Cascading failures in isotropic and anisotropic spatial networks induced by localized attacks and overloads
I. A. Perez, D. Vaknin Ben Porath, C. E. La Rocca +3
In this paper we study the Motter-Lai model of cascading failures induced by overloads in both isotropic and anisotropic spatial networks, generated by placing nodes in a square la…
Emergent networks in fractional percolation
L. D. Valdez, L. A. Braunstein
Real networks are vulnerable to random failures and malicious attacks. However, when a node is harmed or damaged, it may remain partially functional, which helps to maintain the ov…
Cascading failures in anisotropic interdependent networks of spatial modular structures
Dana Vaknin, Amir Bashan, Lidia A. Braunstein +2
The structure of real-world multilayer infrastructure systems usually exhibits anisotropy due to constraints of the embedding space. For example, geographical features like mountai…
