The complexity of many biological, social and technological systems stems from the richness
of the interactions among their units. Over the past decades, a variety of complex systems …

It is a fundamental challenge to understand how the function of a network is related to its
structural organization. Adaptive dynamical networks represent a broad class of systems that …

This book is a comprehensive introduction to quantitative approaches to complex adaptive
systems. Practically all areas of life on this planet are constantly confronted with complex …

Multilayer networks is a rising topic in Network Science which characterizes the structure
and the function of complex systems formed by several interacting networks. Multilayer …

In the past years, network theory has successfully characterized the interaction among the
constituents of a variety of complex systems, ranging from biological to technological, and …

Statistical physics has proven to be a fruitful framework to describe phenomena outside the
realm of traditional physics. Recent years have witnessed an attempt by physicists to study …

Conflicting interests among group members are common when making collective decisions,
yet failure to achieve consensus can be costly. Under these circumstances individuals may …

This book discusses the study and analysis of the physical aspects of social systems and
models, inspired by the analogy with familiar models of physical systems and possible …

Adaptive networks are a novel class of dynamical networks whose topologies and states
coevolve. Many real-world complex systems can be modeled as adaptive networks …

We consider a simplified model of a social network in which individuals have one of two
opinions (called 0 and 1) and their opinions and the network connections coevolve. Edges …
