Networks representing complex systems in nature and society usually involve multiple interaction types. These types suggest essential information on the interactions between components, but not all of the existing types are usually…
Social networks have a small number of large hubs, and a large number of small dense communities. We propose a generative model that captures both hub and dense structures. Based on recent results about graphons on line graphs, our model is…
Networks are powerful instruments to study complex phenomena, but they become hard to analyze in data that contain noise. Network backbones provide a tool to extract the latent structure from noisy networks by pruning non-salient edges. We…

Asymmetric relational data is increasingly prevalent across diverse fields, underscoring the need for directed network models to address the complex challenges posed by their unique structures. Unlike undirected models, directed models can…
Given a dynamic network, where edges appear and disappear over time, we are interested in finding sets of edges that have similar temporal behavior and form a dense subgraph. Formally, we define the problem as the enumeration of the maximal…
Signed Graph Neural Networks (SGNNs) have recently gained attention as an effective tool for several learning tasks on signed networks, i.e., graphs where edges have an associated polarity. One of these tasks is to predict the polarity of…
We study inflation in models with many interacting fields subject to randomly generated scalar potentials. We use methods from non-equilibrium random matrix theory to construct the potentials and an adaption of the 'transport method' to…
We conduct a sequential social-learning experiment where subjects each guess a hidden state based on private signals and the guesses of a subset of their predecessors. A network determines the observable predecessors, and we compare…
The statistical modeling of random networks has been widely used to uncover interaction mechanisms in complex systems and to predict unobserved links in real-world networks. In many applications, network connections are collected via…
Detailed network models of social, biological and other complex systems are often dense, which increases their computational complexity in simulations and analysis. To address this challenge, graph sparsification is used to remove edges…
