Robustness of network of networks (NON) has been studied only for dependency coupling (J.X. Gao et. al., Nature Physics, 2012) and only for connectivity coupling (E.A. Leicht and R.M. D Souza, arxiv:0907.0894). The case of network of n…
The robustness of multipartite entanglement of systems undergoing decoherence is of central importance to the area of quantum information. Its characterization depends however on the measure used to quantify entanglement and on how one…
Network reconstruction is fundamental to understanding the dynamical behaviors of the networked systems. Many systems, modeled by multiplex networks with various types of interactions, display an entirely different dynamical behavior…
Reconstructing weighted networks from partial information is necessary in many important circumstances, e.g. for a correct estimation of systemic risk. It has been shown that, in order to achieve an accurate reconstruction, it is crucial to…
This paper investigates the sample dependence of critical points for neural networks. We introduce a sample-independent critical lifting operator that associates a parameter of one network with a set of parameters of another, thus defining…
