Temporal-network models have provided key insights into how time-varying connectivity shapes dynamical processes such as spreading. Among them, the activity-driven model is a widely used, analytically tractable benchmark. Yet many temporal…
We study the transitions to spatio-temporal intermittency in networks of randomly coupled Chate-Manneville maps. The relevant paprameters are the network connectivity, coupling strength, and the local parameter of the map. We show that the…
The concept of temporal networks provides a framework to understand how the interaction between system components changes over time. In empirical communication data, we often detect non-Poissonian, so-called bursty behavior in the activity…
