The rapid spread of information and rumors through social media platforms, especially in group settings, motivates the need for more sophisticated models of rumor propagation. Traditional pairwise models do not account for group…
Many networked systems are governed by non-pairwise interactions between nodes. The resulting higher-order interaction structure can then be encoded by means of a hypernetwork. In this paper we consider dynamical systems on hypernetworks by…

Quantifying the relations (e.g., similarity) between complex networks paves the way for studying the latent information shared across networks. However, fundamental relation metrics are not well-defined between networks. As a compromise,…
Synchronization of networked oscillators is known to depend fundamentally on the interplay between the dynamics of the graph's units and the microscopic arrangement of the network's structure. For non identical elements, the lack of…

Networks can describe the structure of a wide variety of complex systems by specifying which pairs of entities in the system are connected. While such pairwise representations are flexible, they are not necessarily appropriate when the…
Laplacian dynamics on a signless graph characterize a class of linear interactions, where pairwise cooperative interactions between all agents lead to the convergence to a common state. On a structurally balanced signed graph, the agents…
