Multifractal detrended cross-correlation analysis (MF-DXA) has been developed to detect the long-range power-law cross-correlation of considered signals in the presence of non-stationarity. However, crossovers arising from extrinsic periodic trends make the scaling behavior difficult to analyze....

In this work, the stability issues of the equilibrium points of multi-delayed cellular neural networks with impulsive effects are investigated. Based on the method of linear matrix inequality (LMI) and parameterized first-order model transformation, several new delay-dependent and...

We investigate the role of the spatial pattern and temporal dynamics on the population properties of a diffusive Gause–Lotka–Volterra system. The average total population size is insensitive to the temporal dynamics, whereas a significant decrease of the population size can be found as the...

The visibility graph approach and complex network theory provide a new insight into time series analysis. The inheritance of the visibility graph from the original time series was further explored in the paper. We found that degree distributions of visibility graphs extracted from Pseudo...

The game ‘rock–paper–scissors’ model, with the consideration of the effect of the psychology of conformity, is investigated. The interaction between each two agents is global, but the strategy of the conformity is local for individuals. In the statistical opinion, the probability of the...

Many social networks, apart from displaying scale-free characteristics observed in some instances, possess another remarkable feature that distinguishes them from those that appear in biological and technological context—assortativity. However, little or no attention has been payed to the...

The role of rich-club connectivity is significant in the structural property and functional behavior of complex networks. In this study, we find whether or not a very small portion of rich nodes connected to each other can strongly affect the frequency of occurrence of basic building blocks...
