Control centrality and hierarchical structure in complex networks. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 We introduce the concept of control centrality to quantify the ability of a single node to control a directed weighted network. We calculate the distribution of control centrality for several real networks and find that it is mainly determined by the ...

Interbank complex network and liquidity creation: Evidence from European banks
Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2023 Liquidity creation, as a core functions of banks, affects the stability of the financial system and economic development significantly. However, the existing literature has largely ignored the impact of complex interbank linkages on liquidity creation ...

X-index: A novel flow-based locational measure for quantifying centrality
International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2023 The centrality of a place reflects its relative importance in serving other places, and quantifying centrality is a prerequisite for assessing the urban spatial structure and facilitates policy-making of sustainable urban development.

Assessing Graph Robustness through Modified Zagreb Index
Axioms, 2022 Graph robustness or network robustness is the ability that a graph or a network preserves its connectivity or other properties after the loss of vertices and edges, which has been a central problem in the research of complex networks.

FRACTAL INDEX, CENTRAL CHARGE AND FRACTONS [PDF]
Modern Physics Letters A, 2000 We introduce the notion of fractal index associated with the universal class h of particles or quasiparticles, termed fractons which obey specific fractal statistics. A connection between fractons and conformal field theory (CFT)-quasiparticles is established taking into account the central charge c[ν] and the particle-hole duality ν↔1/ν, for integer ...

A Port Importance Evaluation Method Based on the Projection Pursuit Model in Shipping Networks
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Shipping networks face natural or man-made port emergencies, and the failure of a port affects the network’s connectivity and efficiency. It is very necessary to give priority to the selection of ports that should be maintained or ensure service capacity
