Novel Type of Phase Transition in a System of Self-Driven Particles

TL;DR: Numerical evidence is presented that this model results in a kinetic phase transition from no transport to finite net transport through spontaneous symmetry breaking of the rotational symmetry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Uncovering the overlapping community structure of complex networks in nature and society

TL;DR: After defining a set of new characteristic quantities for the statistics of communities, this work applies an efficient technique for exploring overlapping communities on a large scale and finds that overlaps are significant, and the distributions introduced reveal universal features of networks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simulating dynamical features of escape panic

TL;DR: A model of pedestrian behaviour is used to investigate the mechanisms of panic and jamming by uncoordinated motion in crowds, and an optimal strategy for escape from a smoke-filled room is found, involving a mixture of individualistic behaviour and collective ‘herding’ instinct.

Evolution of the social network of scientific collaborations

TL;DR: The results indicate that the co-authorship network of scientists is scale-free, and that the network evolution is governed by preferential attachment, affecting both internal and external links, and a simple model is proposed that captures the network's time evolution.

Evolution of the social network of scientific collaborations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the evolution of the co-authorship network of scientists and found that the network is scale-free and the network evolution is governed by preferential attachment, a8ecting both internal and external links.
