Random Graphs and Complex Networks
The definitive introduction to the local and global structure of random graph models for complex networks.
Complex Networks & Their Applications VI
This book highlights cutting-edge research in the field of network science, offering scientists, researchers, students and practitioners a unique update on the latest advances in theory and a multitude of applications. It presents the peer-reviewed proceedings of the VI International Conference on Complex Networks and their Applications (COMPLEX NETWORKS 2017), which took place in Lyon on November 29 – December 1, 2017. The carefully selected papers cover a wide range of theoretical topics such as network models and measures; community structure, network dynamics; diffusion, epidemics and spreading processes; resilience and control as well as all the main network applications, including social and political networks; networks in finance and economics; biological and ecological networks and technological networks.
Takeaways from Teaching through a Pandemic
In this insightful volume, more than 50 educators from 4 continents outline thoughtful and intentional innovations of lasting value made in their teaching of tertiary mathematics and statistics, in response to COVID -19 pandemic-related campus closures. The examples given in 20 practical chapters fall into three themes: utilization of relevant technologies, discipline-appropriate assessment alternatives, and support for learning and engagement. The first theme explored is the utilization of the affordances of communications technology and mathematical software and online tools, to create learning resources and activities for virtual classrooms. The second theme is the design of sound assessm...
Algorithms and Models for the Web-Graph
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Workshop on Algorithms and Models for the Web-Graph, WAW 2011, held in Atlanta, GA, in May 2011 - co-located with RSA 2011, the 15th International Conference on Random Structures and Algorithms. The 13 revised full papers presented together with 1 invited lecture were carefully reviewed and selected from 19 submissions. Addressing a wide variety of topics related to the study of the Web-graph such as theoretical and empirical analysis, the papers feature original research in terms of algorithmic and mathematical analysis in all areas pertaining to the World-Wide Web with special focus to the view of complex data as networks.
The Nature of Complex Networks
The Nature of Complex Networks provides a systematic introduction to the statistical mechanics of complex networks and the different theoretical achievements in the field that are now finding strands in common. The book presents a wide range of networks and the processes taking place on them, including recently developed directions, methods, and techniques. It assumes a statistical mechanics view of random networks based on the concept of statistical ensembles but also features the approaches and methods of modern random graph theory and their overlaps with statistical physics. This book will appeal to graduate students and researchers in the fields of statistical physics, complex systems, graph theory, applied mathematics, and theoretical epidemiology.
Google's PageRank and Beyond
Why doesn't your home page appear on the first page of search results, even when you query your own name? How do other web pages always appear at the top? What creates these powerful rankings? And how? The first book ever about the science of web page rankings, Google's PageRank and Beyond supplies the answers to these and other questions and more. The book serves two very different audiences: the curious science reader and the technical computational reader. The chapters build in mathematical sophistication, so that the first five are accessible to the general academic reader. While other chapters are much more mathematical in nature, each one contains something for both audiences. For exam...
Analytic Perturbation Theory and Its Applications
Mathematical models are often used to describe complex phenomena such as climate change dynamics, stock market fluctuations, and the Internet. These models typically depend on estimated values of key parameters that determine system behavior. Hence it is important to know what happens when these values are changed. The study of single-parameter deviations provides a natural starting point for this analysis in many special settings in the sciences, engineering, and economics. The difference between the actual and nominal values of the perturbation parameter is small but unknown, and it is important to understand the asymptotic behavior of the system as the perturbation tends to zero. This is ...
Algorithms and Models for the Web Graph
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 18th International Workshop on Algorithms and Models for the Web Graph, WAW 2023, held in Toronto, Canada, in May 23–26, 2023.The 12 Papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 21 submissions. The aim of the workshop was understanding of graphs that arise from the Web and various user activities on the Web, and stimulate the development of high-performance algorithms and applications that exploit these graphs.
Hamiltonian Cycle Problem and Markov Chains
This research monograph summarizes a line of research that maps certain classical problems of discrete mathematics and operations research - such as the Hamiltonian Cycle and the Travelling Salesman Problems - into convex domains where continuum analysis can be carried out. Arguably, the inherent difficulty of these, now classical, problems stems precisely from the discrete nature of domains in which these problems are posed. The convexification of domains underpinning these results is achieved by assigning probabilistic interpretation to key elements of the original deterministic problems. In particular, the approaches summarized here build on a technique that embeds Hamiltonian Cycle and T...
Innovative Internet Community Systems
Thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Innovative Internet Community Systems, IICS 2005, held in Paris, France, in June 2005. The 17 revised full papers presented have been carefully reviewed and selected from 27 submissions. They mainly address system-oriented problems, content and text processing, and theoretical foundations of quality-of-service problems of Internet protocols, aspects of cooperation and collaboration in Internet systems, as well as agent and text-processing-based methods.
