Résumé

Vito Latora is Professor of Applied Mathematics and Chair of Complex Systems at Queen Mary University of London. Noted for his research in statistical physics and in complex networks, his current interests include time-varying and multiplex networks, and their applications to socio-economic systems and to the human brain.Preface; Introduction; 1. Graphs and graph theory; 2. Centrality measures; 3. Random graphs; 4. Small-world networks; 5. Generalised random graphs; 6. Models of growing graphs; 7. Degree correlations; 8. Cycles and motifs; 9. Community structure; 10. Weighted networks; Appendix; References; Author index; Index.Networks constitute the backbone of complex systems, from the human brain to computer communications, transport infrastructures to online social systems and metabolic reactions to financial markets. Characterising their structure improves our understanding of the physical, biological, economic and social phenomena that shape our world. Rigorous and thorough, this textbook presents a detailed overview of the new theory and methods of network science. Covering algorithms for graph exploration, node ranking and network generation, among the others, the book allows students to experiment with network models and real-world data sets, providing them with a deep understanding of the basics of network theory and its practical applications. Systems of growing complexity are examined in detail, challenging students to increase their level of skill. An engaging presentation of the important principles of network science makes this the perfect reference for researchers and undergraduate and graduate students in physics, mathematics, engineering, biology, neuroscience and the social sciences.IllustrationsT57.85Network analysis (Planning)1EnglandCambridgeVito Latora, Vincenzo Nicosia, Giovanni Russo.
