The isotropic harmonic oscillator in N dimensions is shown to have an underlying symmetry group O(2,1)X O(N)which implies a unique result for the energy spectrum of the system. Raising and lowering operators analogous to those of the…
Insight into how information can propagate within cortical networks is essential for a more complete understanding of neural dynamics and computation in complex networks. Networks with clustered connections have previously been shown to…
Homeostasis refers to a phenomenon whereby the output $x_o$ of a system is approximately constant on variation of an input $\mathcal{I}$. Homeostasis occurs frequently in biochemical networks and in other networks of interacting elements…
A $(v,k;r)$ Heffter space is a resolvable $(v_r,b_k)$ configuration whose points form a half-set of an abelian group $G$ and whose blocks are all zero-sum in $G$. It was recently proved that there are infinitely many orders $v$ for which,…
Structural balance theory has been developed in sociology and psychology to explain how interacting agents, e.g., countries, political parties, opinionated individuals, with mixed trust and mistrust relationships evolve into polarized…
Individuals interact and cooperate in structured systems. Many studies represent this structure using static networks, where each link represents a permanent connection between two nodes. However, real interactions are generally not…
Does the enemy of my enemy become my friend? A growing literature on structural analysis of interstate relationships has tackled this old question from the network perspective. However, the mechanism of long-term change in the structure of…
Structural balance theory is an established framework for studying social relationships of friendship and enmity. These relationships are modeled by a signed network whose energy potential measures the level of imbalance, while stochastic…
We build the coherent states for a family of solvable singular Schr\"odinger Hamiltonians obtained through supersymmetric quantum mechanics from the truncated oscillator. The main feature of such systems is the fact that their…
Consider a simple locally finite hypergraph on a countable vertex set, where each edge represents one unit of load which should be distributed among the vertices defining the edge. An allocation of load is called balanced if load cannot be…
A stationary physical system satisfies peculiar balance conditions involving mean values of appropriate observables. In this paper we show how to deduce such quantitative links, named balance equations, demonstrating as well their…
We investigate stability conditions related to the existence of solutions of the Hull-Strominger system with prescribed balanced class. We build on recent work by the authors, where the Hull-Strominger system is recasted using non-Hermitian…
We present numerical simulations of a model of social influence, where the opinion of each agent is represented by a binary vector. Agents adjust their opinions as a result of random encounters, whenever the difference between opinions is…
The notion of "balance" is fundamental for sociologists who study social networks. In formal mathematical terms, it concerns the distribution of triad configurations in actual networks compared to random networks of the same edge density.…
In this paper we consider the existence of Hamilton cycles and perfect matchings in a random graph model proposed by Krioukov et al.~in 2010. In this model, nodes are chosen randomly inside a disk in the hyperbolic plane and two nodes are…
A numerical analysis of a one-dimensional Hamiltonian system, composed by $N$ classical localized Heisenberg rotators on a ring, is presented. A distance $r_{ij}$ between rotators at sites $i$ and $j$ is introduced, such that the…
Hypergraphs provide a natural way of representing group relations, whose complexity motivates an extensive array of prior work to adopt some form of abstraction and simplification of higher-order interactions. However, the following…
This paper proposes a new measure of node centrality in social networks, the Harmonic Influence Centrality, which emerges naturally in the study of social influence over networks. Using an intuitive analogy between social and electrical…
For a symmetric Hamiltonian system, lower bounds for the number of relative equilibria surrounding stable and formally unstable relative equilibria on nearby energy levels are given.
In real-world systems, the relationships and connections between components are highly complex. Real systems are often described as networks, where nodes represent objects in the system and edges represent relationships or connections…
