Maximal-entropy random walks in complex networks with limited information

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that an almost maximal-entropy random walk is obtained when the step probabilities are proportional to a power of the degree of the target node, with an exponent α that depends on the degree-degree correlations and is equal to 1 in uncorrelated graphs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Components in time-varying graphs

TL;DR: The notion of connectedness, and the definitions of node and graph components, are extended to the case of time-varying graphs, which are represented as time-ordered sequences of graphs defined over a fixed set of nodes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spreading of sexually transmitted diseases in heterosexual populations

TL;DR: It is shown that the epidemic outbreak in bipartite populations, with number of sexual partners distributed as in empirical observations from national sex surveys, takes place for larger spreading rates than for the case in which the bipartITE nature of the network is not taken into account.
Journal ArticleDOI

Components in time-varying graphs

TL;DR: In this article, the problem of finding strongly connected components in a time-varying graph can be mapped into finding the maximal-cliques in an opportunely constructed static graph, which is called the affine graph.
Journal ArticleDOI

Network Dynamics of Innovation Processes.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce a model for the emergence of innovations, in which cognitive processes are described as random walks on the network of links among ideas or concepts, and an innovation corresponds to the first visit of a node.
