In the last twenty years network science has proven its strength in modelling many real-world interacting systems as generic agents, the nodes, connected by pairwise edges. Yet, in many relevant cases, interactions are not pairwise but…

Networks and graphs provide a simple but effective model to a vast set of systems which building blocks interact throughout pairwise interactions. Unfortunately, such models fail to describe all those systems which building blocks interact…

Mapping network flows provides insight into the organization of networks, but even though many real-networks are bipartite, no method for mapping flows takes advantage of the bipartite structure. What do we miss by discarding this…

To connect structure, dynamics and function in systems with multibody interactions, network scientists model random walks on hypergraphs and identify communities that confine the walks for a long time. The two flow-based community-detection…

The behavior of complex systems is determined not only by the topological organization of their interconnections but also by the dynamical processes taking place among their constituents. A faithful modeling of the dynamics is essential…

Many real-world systems, from social networks to protein-protein interactions and species distributions, exhibit overlapping flow-based communities that reflect their functional organisation. However, reliably identifying such overlapping…

Hypergraphs have emerged as a powerful modeling framework to represent systems with multiway interactions, that is systems where interactions may involve an arbitrary number of agents. Here we explore the properties of real-world…
