Resilience of networks with community structure behaves as if under an external field [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018 Significance Much work has focused on phase transitions in complex networks in which the system transitions from a resilient to a failed state. Furthermore, many of these networks have a community structure, whose effects on resilience have not yet been ...
