When higher-order interactions matter: reducibility, parsimony, and microscopic organization

Alex Arenas, Federico Battiston, Andrea Gabrielli

The current debate on higher-order interactions raises a fundamental question: when can systems organized through group interactions be faithfully represented within a graph-based…

Towards a Theory for the Formation of Chimera Patterns in Complex Networks

Malbor Asllani, Alex Arenas

Chimera states, marked by the coexistence of order and disorder in systems of coupled oscillators, have captivated researchers with their existence and intricate patterns. Despite…

Exploring Spatial Segregation Induced by Competition Avoidance as Driving Mechanism for Emergent Coexistence in Microbial Communities

Mattia Mattei, Alex Arenas

This study investigates the role of spatial segregation, prompted by competition avoidance, as a key mechanism for emergent coexistence within microbial communities. Recognizing th…

A triadic approximation reveals the role of interaction overlap on the spread of complex contagions on higher-order networks

Giulio Burgio, Sergio Gómez, Alex Arenas

Contagion processes relying on the exposure to multiple sources are prevalent in social systems, and are effectively represented by hypergraphs. In this Letter, we derive a mean-fi…

Diffusion and synchronization dynamics reveal the multi-scale patterns of spatial segregation

Aleix Bassolas, Sergio Gómez, Alex Arenas

Urban systems are characterized by populations with heterogeneous characteristics, and whose spatial distribution is crucial to understand inequalities in life expectancy or educat…
