Network analysis of the Kyiv bylyny cycle -- east Slavic epic narratives

Petro Sarkanych, Nazar Fedorak, Yurij Holovatch +3

In recent times, the advent of network science permitted new quantitative approaches to literary studies. Here we bring the Kyiv bylyny cycle into the field - East Slavic epic narr…

A mechanism for evolution of the physical concepts network

V. Palchykov, M. Krasnytska, O. Mryglod +1

We suggest an underlying mechanism that governs the growth of a network of concepts, a complex network that reflects the connections between different scientific concepts based on…

Physicist's approach to public transportation networks: between data processing and statistical physics

Yaryna Korduba, Yurij Holovatch, Robin de Regt

In this paper we aim to demonstrate how physical perspective enriches usual statistical analysis when dealing with a complex system of many interacting agents of non-physical origi…

Public transportation in UK viewed as a complex network

R. de Regt, C. von Ferber, Yu. Holovatch +1

In this paper we investigate the topological and spatial features of public transport networks (PTN) within the UK. Networks investigated include London, Manchester, West Midlands,…

Fractal transit networks: self-avoiding walks and Lévy flights

C. von Ferber, Yu. Holovatch

Using data on the Berlin public transport network, the present study extends previous observations of fractality within public transport routes by showing that also the distributio…

A tale of two cities. Vulnerabilities of the London and Paris transit networks

C. von Ferber, B. Berche, T. Holovatch +1

This paper analyses the impact of random failure or attack on the public transit networks of London and Paris in a comparative study. In particular we analyze how the dysfunction o…

Transportation Network Stability: a Case Study of City Traffic

B. Berche, C. von Ferber, T. Holovatch +1

The goals of this paper are to present criteria, that allow to a priori quantify the attack stability of real world correlated networks of finite size and to check how these criter…

Public Transport Networks under Random Failure and Directed Attack

Bertrand Berche, Christian von Ferber, Taras Holovatch +1

The behaviour of complex networks under failure or attack depends strongly on the specific scenario. Of special interest are scale-free networks, which are usually seen as robust u…

Modeling Metropolis Public Transport

C. von Ferber, T. Holovatch, Yu. Holovatch +1

We present results of a survey of public transport networks (PTNs) of selected 14 major cities of the world with PTN sizes ranging between 2000 and 46000 stations and develop an ev…

Network Harness: Metropolis Public Transport

Christian von Ferber, Taras Holovatch, Yurij Holovatch +1

We analyze the public transport networks (PTNs) of a number of major cities of the world. While the primary network topology is defined by a set of routes each servicing an ordered…
