Here we study how a traffic jam spreads on complex networks when driven by an increasing flux between certain initial and final points. For that purpose, we developed two new traffic models based on vehicular traffic and applied them on the Apollonian network and the Swiss road network. The...

Using Random Matrix Theory one can derive exact relations between the eigenvalue spectrum of the covariance matrix and the eigenvalue spectrum of its estimator (experimentally measured correlation matrix). These relations will be used to analyze a particular case of the correlations in financial...

Using random matrix technique we determine an exact relation between the eigenvalue spectrum of the covariance matrix and of its estimator. This relation can be used in practice to compute eigenvalue invariants of the covariance (correlation) matrix. Results can be applied in various problems...

We consider a covariance matrix composed of asymmetric and free random Lévy matrices. We use the results of free random variables to derive an algebraic equation for the resolvent and solve it to extract the spectral density. For an appropriate choice of asymmetry and Lévy index α/2=34 the...

In this paper, we propose a novel node importance evaluation method from the perspective of the existence of mutual dependence among nodes. The node importance comprises its initial importance and the importance contributions from both the adjacent and non-adjacent nodes according to the...

Functional networks, i.e. networks representing dynamic relationships between the components of a complex system, have been instrumental for our understanding of, among others, the human brain. Due to limited data availability, the multi-layer nature of numerous functional networks has hitherto...

We study the topological properties of the information transfer networks (ITN) of the global financial market indices for six different periods. ITN is a directed weighted network, in which the direction and weight are determined by the transfer entropy between market indices. By applying the...

Recent studies of rumor or information diffusion process in complex networks show that in contrast to traditional comprehension, individuals who participate in rumor spreading within one network do not always get the rumor from their neighbors. They can obtain the rumor from different sources...

Identifying influential nodes in complex networks has attracted much attention because of its great theoretical significance and wide application. Existing methods consider the edges equally when designing identifying methods for the unweighted networks. In this paper, we propose an edge...

The communication infrastructure is a critical component of a large-scale cloud data center. It needs to provide the best performance available while keeping overprovisioning and, lately even more important, power consumption, to the minimum. Aiming to provide a unified solution that will have...
