Majority bootstrap percolation is a monotone cellular automata that can be thought of as a model of infection spreading in networks. Starting with an initially infected set, new vertices become infected once more than half of their…

For $k$-graphs $F$ and $H_0$ the $F$-bootstrap percolation process (or $F$-process) starting with $H_0$ is a sequence $(H_i)_{i\geq0}$ of $k$-graphs such that $H_{i+1}$ is obtained from $H_i$ by adding all those $e\in V(H_0)^{(k)}\setminus…

On a geometric model for complex networks (introduced by Krioukov et al.) we investigate the bootstrap percolation process. This model consists of random geometric graphs on the hyperbolic plane having $N$ vertices, a dependent version of…

Higher order interactions are increasingly recognised as a fundamental aspect of complex systems ranging from the brain to social contact networks. Hypergraph as well as simplicial complexes capture the higher-order interactions of complex…

Multi-layer networks or multiplex networks are generally considered as the networks that have the same set of vertices but different types of edges. Multi-layer networks are especially useful when describing the systems with several kinds…

Bootstrap percolation is a prominent framework for studying the spreading of activity on a graph. We begin with an initial set of active vertices. The process then proceeds in rounds, and further vertices become active as soon as they have…

The k-truss is a type of cohesive subgraphs proposed recently for the study of networks. While the problem of computing most cohesive subgraphs is NP-hard, there exists a polynomial time algorithm for computing k-truss. Compared with k-core…

The models of $k$-core percolation and interdependent networks (IN) have been extensively studied in their respective fields. A recent study has revealed that they share several common critical exponents. However, several newly discovered…

In the random $r$-neighbour bootstrap percolation process on a graph $G$, a set of initially infected vertices is chosen at random by retaining each vertex of $G$ independently with probability $p\in (0,1)$, and "healthy" vertices get…

In graph bootstrap percolation, edges of an Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph ${\mathcal G}_{n,p}$ are initially active. Activation spreads to other edges of the complete graph $K_n$ by an iterative process governed by a fixed graph $H$,…

Majority bootstrap percolation is a model of infection spreading in networks. Starting with a set of initially infected vertices, new vertices become infected once half of their neighbours are infected. Balogh, Bollob\'{a}s and Morris…

The $k$-core of a graph is its largest subgraph with minimum degree at least $k$, a fundamental concept for uncovering hierarchical structures. In this paper, we establish a connection between the $k$-core and the high-order spectra of…

We numerically study bootstrap percolation on Kleinberg's spatial networks, in which the probability density function of a node to have a long-range link at distance $r$ scales as $P(r)\sim r^{\alpha}$. Setting the ratio of the size of the…

We solve the weak percolation problem for multiplex networks with overlapping edges. In weak percolation, a vertex belongs to a connected component if at least one of its neighbors in each of the layers is in this component. This is a…

The k-core of a graph G is the maximal subgraph of G having minimum degree at least k. In 1996, Pittel, Spencer and Wormald found the threshold $\lambda_c$ for the emergence of a non-trivial k-core in the random graph $G(n,\lambda/n)$, and…
