Cascading failures in complex systems have been studied extensively using two different models: $k$-core percolation and interdependent networks. We combine the two models into a general model, solve it analytically and validate our…
We study the percolation phase transition in hierarchical scale-free nets. Depending on the method of construction, the nets can be fractal or small-world (the diameter grows either algebraically or logarithmically with the net size),…
Percolation on complex networks is used both as a model for dynamics on networks, such as network robustness or epidemic spreading, and as a benchmark for our models of networks, where our ability to predict percolation measures our ability…
Dependency links in single-layer networks offer a convenient way of modeling nonlocal percolation effects in networked systems where certain pairs of nodes are only able to function together. We study the percolation properties of the weak…
Avalanche dynamics and related power law statistics are ubiquitous in nature, arising in phenomena like earthquakes, forest fires and solar flares. Very interestingly, an analogous behavior is associated with many condensed matter systems,…
In the real world, the stable operation of a network is usually inseparable from the mutual support of other networks. In such an interdependent network, a node in one layer may depend on multiple nodes in another layer, forming a complex…
As a promising computational paradigm, occurrence of critical states in artificial and biological neural networks has attracted wide-spread attention. An often-made explicit or implicit assumption is that one single critical state is…
How the giant component of a network disappears under attacking nodes or links addresses a key aspect of network robustness, which can be framed into percolation problems. Various strategies to select the node to be deactivated have been…
We study the contact process on layered networks in which each layer is unidirectionally coupled to the next layer. Each layer has elements sitting on i) Erd{\"o}s-R{\'e}yni network, ii) a $d$-dimensional lattice. The layer at the top which…
We study the percolation behavior of two interdependent scale-free (SF) networks under random failure of 1-$p$ fraction of nodes. Our results are based on numerical solutions of analytical expressions and simulations. We find that as the…
We instigate the properties of the threshold contact process (TCP), a process showing an absorbing-state phase transition with infinitely many absorbing states, on random complex networks. The finite size scaling exponents characterizing…
The internal organization of complex networks often has striking consequences on either their response to external perturbations or on their dynamical properties. In addition to small-world and scale-free properties, clustering is the most…
We consider bootstrap percolation on uncorrelated complex networks. We obtain the phase diagram for this process with respect to two parameters: $f$, the fraction of vertices initially activated, and $p$, the fraction of undamaged vertices…
The percolation phase transition in complex network systems attracts much attention and has numerous applications in various research fields. Finite size effects smooth the transition and make it difficult to predict the critical point of…
We study the site-bond percolation on a hierarchical scale-free network, namely, the decorated (2,2)-flower, by using the renormalization group technique. The phase diagram essentially depends on the fraction of occupied sites.…
Recently much attention has been paid to the study of the robustness of interdependent and multiplex networks and, in particular, networks of networks. The robustness of interdependent networks can be evaluated by the size of a mutually…
Cascading failures may lead to dramatic collapse in interdependent networks, where the breakdown takes place as a discontinuity of the order parameter. In the cascading failure (CF) model with healing there is a control parameter which at…
We study the geometrical features of the order parameter's fluctuations near the critical point of mixed-order phase transitions in randomly interdependent spatial networks. In contrast to continuous transitions, where the structure of the…
We propose the $K$-selective percolation process as a model for the iterative removals of nodes with the specific intermediate degree in complex networks. In the model, a random node with degree $K$ is deactivated one by one until no more…
Percolation is a paradigmatic model in disordered systems and has been applied to various natural phenomena. The percolation transition is known as one of the most robust continuous transitions. However, recent extensive studies have…
