Characterizing the analogy between hyperbolic embedding and community structure of complex networks

A Faqeeh, S Osat, F Radicchi - Physical review letters, 2018 - APS
We show that the community structure of a network can be used as a coarse version of its
embedding in a hidden space with hyperbolic geometry. The finding emerges from a …

An anomalous topological phase transition in spatial random graphs

J van der Kolk, MÁ Serrano, M Boguñá - Communications Physics, 2022 - nature.com
Clustering–the tendency for neighbors of nodes to be connected–quantifies the coupling of
a complex network to its latent metric space. In random geometric graphs, clustering …
