Diffusion of energy technologies: the role and dynamics of supply-side information networks

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Romano Tobias Wyss, Gloria Serra Coch, Maria Anna Hecher

The diffusion of energy technologies is key for supporting the energy transition. While social influence and peer effects have been extensively studied on the demand side and found to impact adoption, less focus has been given to the role of information ne ...

Simplicity in complex networks: a path-based centrality

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Leonardo Bellocchi

Understanding travel behaviour in transportation system is key challenge to calibrate and simulate the usage of urban mobility networks. We define in this work a path-based centrality based on the simplicity of the path between two locations in road networ ...

Scale-dependent measure of network centrality from diffusion dynamics

Alexis Arnaudon

Classic measures of graph centrality capture distinct aspects of node importance, from the local (e.g., degree) to the global (e.g., closeness). Here we exploit the connection between diffusion and geometry to introduce a multiscale centrality measure. A n ...

Systemic Risk in Networks with a Central Node

Damir Filipovic, Léo Hamed Amini

We examine the effects on a financial network of clearing all contracts though a central node (CN), thereby transforming the original network into a star-shaped one. The CN is capitalized with external equity and a guaranty fund. We introduce a structural ...

A Measure of Dynamical Efficiency for Multimodal Interconnected Urban Systems

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Leonardo Bellocchi

Complex network theory describes network performance mostly based on topological characteristics, like betweenness centrality. This work integrates concepts from complex networks and traffic engineering. We propose a new measure for spatial networks and, i ...

The key player problem in complex oscillator networks and electric power grids: Resistance centralities identify local vulnerabilities

Philippe René Joseph Jacquod, Melvyn Sandy Tyloo

Identifying key players in coupled individual systems is a fundamental problem in network theory. We investigate synchronizable network-coupled dynamical systems such as high-voltage electric power grids and coupled oscillators on complex networks. We defi ...

Dynamics of functional connectivity at high spatial resolution reveal long-range interactions and fine-scale organization

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti

Dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) derived from resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging sheds light onto moment-to-moment reconfigurations of large-scale functional brain networks. Due to computational limits, connectivity is typically compu ...

Eigenmaps Of Dynamic Functional Connectivity: Voxel-Level Dominant Patterns Through Eigenvector Centrality

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti

Dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) based on resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) explores the ongoing temporal configuration of brain networks. To reduce the large dimensionality of the data, conventional dFC analysis usually fores ...

Character network analysis of Émile Zola’s Les Rougon-Macquart

Yannick Rochat

In this work, we use network analysis methods to sketch a typology of fiction novels based on characters and their proximity in the narration. We construct character networks modelling the twenty novels composing Les Rougon-Macquart, written by Émile Zola. ...
