A unified framework for Simplicial Kuramoto models

Marco Nurisso, Alexis Arnaudon, Maxime Lucas +4

Simplicial Kuramoto models have emerged as a diverse and intriguing class of models describing oscillators on simplices rather than nodes. In this paper, we present a unified frame…

Entropy-based models to randomize real-world hypergraphs

Fabio Saracco, Giovanni Petri, Renaud Lambiotte +1

Network theory has often disregarded many-body relationships, solely focusing on pairwise interactions: neglecting them, however, can lead to misleading representations of complex…

Simplicially driven simple contagion

Maxime Lucas, Iacopo Iacopini, Thomas Robiglio +2

Single contagion processes are known to display a continuous transition from an epidemic-free phase at low contagion rates to the epidemic state for rates above a critical threshol…

Multistability, intermittency and hybrid transitions in social contagion models on hypergraphs

Guilherme Ferraz de Arruda, Giovanni Petri, Pablo Martín Rodriguez +1

Although ubiquitous, interactions of groups of individuals (e.g., modern messaging applications, group meetings, or even a parliament discussion) are not yet thoroughly studied. Fr…

Connecting Hodge and Sakaguchi-Kuramoto: a mathematical framework for coupled oscillators on simplicial complexes

Alexis Arnaudon, Robert L. Peach, Giovanni Petri +1

We formulate a general Kuramoto model on weighted simplicial complexes where phases oscillators are supported on simplices of any order . Crucially, we introduce linear and non-…

The physics of higher-order interactions in complex systems

Federico Battiston, Enrico Amico, Alain Barrat +11

Complex networks have become the main paradigm for modelling the dynamics of interacting systems. However, networks are intrinsically limited to describing pairwise interactions, w…

Influential groups for seeding and sustaining nonlinear contagion in heterogeneous hypergraphs

Guillaume St-Onge, Iacopo Iacopini, Vito Latora +4

Several biological and social contagion phenomena, such as superspreading events or social reinforcement, are the results of multi-body interactions, for which hypergraphs offer a…

Group interactions modulate critical mass dynamics in social convention

Iacopo Iacopini, Giovanni Petri, Andrea Baronchelli +1

How can minorities of individuals overturn social conventions? The theory of critical mass states that when a committed minority reaches a critical size, a cascade of behavioural c…

Hypergraph reconstruction from network data

Jean-Gabriel Young, Giovanni Petri, Tiago P. Peixoto

Networks can describe the structure of a wide variety of complex systems by specifying which pairs of entities in the system are connected. While such pairwise representations are…

Networks beyond pairwise interactions: structure and dynamics

Federico Battiston, Giulia Cencetti, Iacopo Iacopini +5

The complexity of many biological, social and technological systems stems from the richness of the interactions among their units. Over the past decades, a great variety of complex…

Homological Scaffold via Minimal Homology Bases

Marco Guerra, Alessandro De Gregorio, Ulderico Fugacci +2

The homological scaffold leverages persistent homology to construct a topologically sound summary of a weighted network. However, its crucial dependency on the choice of representa…

Impact of the distribution of recovery rates on disease spreading in complex networks

Guilherme Ferraz de Arruda, Giovanni Petri, Francisco A. Rodrigues +1

We study a general epidemic model with arbitrary recovery rate distributions. This simple deviation from the standard setup is sufficient to prove that heterogeneity in the dynamic…
