Explosive transitions in complex networks' structure and dynamics: Percolation and synchronization

S Boccaletti, JA Almendral, S Guan, I Leyva, Z Liu… - Physics Reports, 2016 - Elsevier
Percolation and synchronization are two phase transitions that have been extensively
studied since already long ago. A classic result is that, in the vast majority of cases, these …

Explosive phenomena in complex networks

RM D'Souza, J Gómez-Gardenes, J Nagler… - Advances in …, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
The emergence of large-scale connectivity and synchronization are crucial to the structure,
function and failure of many complex socio-technical networks. Thus, there is great interest …

[BOOK][B] Applications of percolation theory

M Sahimi - 1994 - taylorfrancis.com
Over the past two decades percolation theory has been used to explain and model a wide
variety of phenomena that are of industrial and scientific importance. Examples include …

Anomalous critical and supercritical phenomena in explosive percolation

RM D'Souza, J Nagler - Nature Physics, 2015 - nature.com
The emergence of large-scale connectivity on an underlying network or lattice, the so-called
percolation transition, has a profound impact on the system's macroscopic behaviours …

Impact of single links in competitive percolation

J Nagler, A Levina, M Timme - Nature Physics, 2011 - nature.com
How a complex network is connected crucially impacts its dynamics and function.
Percolation, the transition to extensive connectedness on gradual addition of links, was long …

Explosive percolation is continuous, but with unusual finite size behavior

P Grassberger, C Christensen, G Bizhani, SW Son… - Physical review …, 2011 - APS
We study four Achlioptas-type processes with “explosive” percolation transitions. All
transitions are clearly continuous, but their finite size scaling functions are not entirely …

Avoiding a spanning cluster in percolation models

YS Cho, S Hwang, HJ Herrmann, B Kahng - Science, 2013 - science.org
When dynamics in a system proceeds under suppressive external bias, the system can
undergo an abrupt phase transition, as can happen when an epidemic spreads. Recently …

Conditions for viral influence spreading through multiplex correlated social networks

Y Hu, S Havlin, HA Makse - Physical Review X, 2014 - APS
A fundamental problem in network science is to predict how certain individuals are able to
initiate new networks to spring up “new ideas.” Frequently, these changes in trends are …

Ordinary percolation with discontinuous transitions

S Boettcher, V Singh, RM Ziff - Nature communications, 2012 - nature.com
Percolation on a one-dimensional lattice and fractals, such as the Sierpinski gasket, is
typically considered to be trivial, because they percolate only at full bond density. By …

Explosive percolation with multiple giant components

W Chen, RM D'Souza - Physical review letters, 2011 - APS
We generalize the random graph evolution process of Bohman, Frieze, and Wormald [T.
Bohman, A. Frieze, and NC Wormald, Random Struct. Algorithms, 25, 432 (2004) RSALFD …
