We introduce a dynamical network model which unifies a number of network families which are individually known to exhibit $q$-exponential degree distributions. The present model dynamics incorporates static (non-growing) self-organizing…
Because diffusion typically involves symmetric interactions, scant attention has been focused on studying asymmetric cases. However, important networked systems underlain by diffusion (e.g. cortical networks and WWW) are inherently…
Typically, contagion strength is modeled by a transmission rate $\lambda$, whereby all nodes in a network are treated uniformly in a mean-field approximation. However, local agents react differently to the same contagion based on their…
