Previous research on online consumer purchases has focused on increased purchases and neglected decreased purchases. However, factors impacting these purchases are different. Drawing on the two-factor theory, in this paper, the authors compare factors affecting increase and decrease in Chinese...

By making use of two observing facts for many natural and social networks, i.e., the nodes’ diversity, and the disassortative (or assortative) properties for biological and technological (or social) networks, a simple and elegant model with three kinds of nodes and deterministic selective...

A railway transportation system can be represented by a bipartite network consisting of trains and stations, where a train is connected to all stations where it stops. In this paper, motivated by the resource-allocation process taking place on networks, we design a method to project a Chinese...

Recent empirical observations suggest a heterogeneous nature of human activities. The heavy-tailed inter-event time distribution at the population level is well accepted, while whether the individual acts in a heterogeneous way is still under debate. Motivated by the impact of temporal...

By using the random interchanging algorithm, we investigate the relations between average distance, standard deviation of degree distribution and synchronizability of complex networks. We find that both increasing the average distance and magnifying the degree deviation will make the network...

Inspired by the local minority game, we propose a network Boolean game and investigate its dynamical properties on scale-free networks. The system can self-organize to a stable state with better performance than the random choice game, although only the local information is available to each...
