Complexity in international society: theorising fragmentation and linkages in primary and secondary institutions

open access: yes, 2021
This article seeks to contribute to theorising the institutional structure of international society by exploring synergies between complex systems thinking and the English School theory of International Relations (IR).

On the Complexity of Automatic Complexity [PDF]

open access: yesTheory of Computing Systems, 2017
Generalizing the notion of automatic complexity of individual strings due to Shallit and Wang, we define the automatic complexity $A(E)$ of an equivalence relation $E$ on a finite set $S$ of strings. We prove that the problem of determining whether $A(E)$ equals the number $|E|$ of equivalence classes of $E$ is $\mathsf{NP}$-complete.

Simplicial Complexes are Game Complexes [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2019
Strong placement games (SP-games) are a class of combinatorial games whose structure allows one to describe the game via simplicial complexes. A natural question is whether well-known parameters of combinatorial games, such as "game value", appear as invariants of the simplicial complexes. This paper is the first step in that direction.

Case-based complexity: within-case time variation and temporal casing

open access: yes, 2021
We observe that time is central to most social dynamics and yet remains poorly understood. The complexity sciences have contributed a wide range of concepts and tools to investigate and recast time in social systems.

The individual dynamics of affective expression on social media

open access: yesEPJ Data Science, 2020
Understanding the temporal dynamics of affect is crucial for our understanding human emotions in general. In this study, we empirically test a computational model of affective dynamics by analyzing a large-scale dataset of Facebook status updates using ...

Monetary Convergence Across the Economic Community of West African States: Lessons for the Envisioned West African Monetary Union

open access: yes, 2022
Since its inauguration, the Economic Community of West African States has stressed its desire to advance regional integration through the establishment of a common single currency (the Eco). This policy has been considered advantageous given the economic

The Complexity of Complex Patients [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Internal Medicine, 2015
A s the population of the United States ages, and more and more people live with multiple chronic conditions, the issue of complex patients is receiving increasing attention. Physicians have recognized that disease-centric approaches to clinical management have serious limitations for patients with multiple co-occurring medical conditions.

Complexity Framework for Forbidden Subgraphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
For any finite set H={H1,…,Hp} of graphs, a graph is H-subgraph-free if it does not contain any of H1,…,Hp as a subgraph. Similar to known meta-classifications for the minor and topological minor relations, we give a meta-classification for the subgraph ...
