Accreting White Dwarfs as Supersoft X-ray Sources
I review various phenomena associated with mass-accreting white dwarfs (WDs) in the view of supersoft X-ray sources. When the mass-accretion rate is low (\dot M_{acc} < a few \times 10^{-7} M_\sun yr^{-1}), hydrogen nuclear burning is unstable and nova ...

Impact of lexical and sentiment factors on the popularity of scientific papers
We investigate how textual properties of scientific papers relate to the number of citations they receive. Our main finding is that correlations are non-linear and affect differently most-cited and typical papers.

Log-periodic oscillations due to discrete effects in complex networks
We show that discretization of internode distribution in complex networks affects internode distances l_ij calculated as a function of degrees (k_i k_j) and an average path length as function of network size N.

Hierarchical Cont-Bouchaud model [PDF]
We extend the well-known Cont-Bouchaud model to include a hierarchical topology of agent's interactions. The influence of hierarchy on system dynamics is investigated by two models. The first one is based on a multi-level, nested Erdos-Renyi random graph
