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 …

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 …

Networks form the backbone of many complex systems, ranging from the Internet to human
societies. Accordingly, not only is the range of our interactions limited and thus best …

Networks of interconnected nodes have long played a key role in Cognitive Science, from
artificial neural networks to spreading activation models of semantic memory. Recently …

How do shared conventions emerge in complex decentralized social systems? This
question engages fields as diverse as linguistics, sociology, and cognitive science. Previous …

The origin of population-scale coordination has puzzled philosophers and scientists for
centuries. Recently, game theory, evolutionary approaches and complex systems science …

The ongoing revolution of Internet of Things (IoT), together with the growing diffusion of
robots in many activities of every day life, makes IoT-aided robotics applications a tangible …

We introduce a nonlinear variant of the voter model, the q-voter model, in which q neighbors
(with possible repetition) are consulted for a voter to change opinion. If the q neighbors …

The structure of a network can significantly influence the properties of the dynamical
processes that take place on them. While many studies have been paid to this influence …
