Complex networks analysis from an edge perspective

02/07/2019

If we carefully observe our daily lives and the systems in which we participate, we naturally perceive that everything is somehow connected. From species evolution to social relations, acknowledging all the supply chain systems we depend on, networks portray the simplest representation of these systems. Notwithstanding this simplicity, these networks often underlie complex dynamics. Species and population evolution are subject to many complex interactions. Individuals’ states – from individual choices, epidemic states, strategic behaviors, opinions, among others – are influenced by social ties and by the overall topology of interaction. These networks, called complex networks, show a prevalence of certain features, which are shared between completely different systems, thus defying the limits of the traditional techniques of analysis and intriguing the research community.
