Uncovering the Dependence of Cascading Failures on Network Topology by Constructing Null Models

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
Cascading failures are the significant cause of network breakdowns in a variety of complex infrastructure systems. Given such a system, uncovering the dependence of cascading failures on its underlying topology is essential but still not well explored in

Interplay Between Hierarchy and Centrality in Complex Networks

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Hierarchy and centrality are two popular notions used to characterize the importance of entities in complex systems. Indeed, many complex systems exhibit a natural hierarchical structure, and centrality is a fundamental characteristic allowing to ...

Volume Quantization with Flexible Singularities for Hexahedral Meshing

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a novel algorithm for quantization and subsequent hexahedral mesh generation from seamless volumetric maps. Quantization is the process of choosing integers that represent the numbers of hexahedral elements to be placed in each region of the volume, and transforming the seamless map into an integer‐grid map matching that choice ...

ANDERSON TRANSITIONS: CRITICALITY, SYMMETRIES AND TOPOLOGIES [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics B, 2010
The physics of Anderson transitions between localized and metallic phases in disordered systems is reviewed. We focus on the character of criticality as well as on underlying symmetries and topologies that are crucial for understanding phase diagrams and the critical behavior.

Topological state transitions in electromagnetic topological defects

open access: yes, 2023
Abstract The recent emergence of electromagnetic topological defects has attracted wide interest in fields from topological photonics to deep-subwavelength light-mater interactions. Previously, much of the research has focused on constructing specific topological defects but the fundamental theory describing the physical mechanisms underlying ...

Geometric Assortative Growth Model for Small-World Networks

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
It has been shown that both humanly constructed and natural networks are often characterized by small-world phenomenon and assortative mixing. In this paper, we propose a geometrically growing model for small-world networks.

Finite Resolution Dynamics

open access: yes, 2010
We develop a new mathematical model for describing a dynamical system at limited resolution (or finite scale), and we give precise meaning to the notion of a dynamical system having some property at all resolutions coarser than a given number.

Towards a theory of presence

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
Abstract The present paper presents a new (formal) theory of presence according to which, roughly, to be present at a place is to have a delegate located at that place. One crucial feature of the theory is that something can be present at a place without thereby being located there.

Aberrant Brain Network Integration and Segregation in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy Revealed by Structural Connectomics

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is one of the most common forms of peripheral neuropathy, and its incidence has been increasing. Mounting evidence has shown that patients with DPN have been associated with widespread alterations in the structure ...

Reorganization of the Brain Structural Covariance Network in Ischemic Moyamoya Disease Revealed by Graph Theoretical Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
ObjectiveIschemic moyamoya (MMD) disease could alter the cerebral structure, but little is known about the topological organization of the structural covariance network (SCN).
