Networks are largely used for modelling and analysing data and relations among them. Recently, it has been shown that the use of a single network may not be the optimal choice, since a single network may misses some aspects. Consequently,…

Networks are often studied as graphs, where the vertices stand for entities in the world and the edges stand for connections between them. While relatively easy to study, graphs are often inadequate for modeling real-world situations,…

Many complex networks display a mesoscopic structure with groups of nodes sharing many links with the other nodes in their group and comparatively few with nodes of different groups. This feature is known as community structure and encodes…

Community structure is a typical property of many real-world networks, and has become a key to understand the dynamics of the networked systems. In these networks most nodes apparently lie in a community while there often exists a few nodes…

The graph of communities is a network emerging above the level of individual nodes in the hierarchical organisation of a complex system. In this graph the nodes correspond to communities (highly interconnected subgraphs, also called modules…
