  • Charting multidimensional ideological polarization across demographic groups in the USA

    Open AccessJaume Ojer, David Cárcamo et al.ARTICLENature Human Behaviour2025References: 76

    Has ideological polarization actually increased in the past decades, or have voters simply sorted themselves into parties matching their ideology more closely? Here we present a methodology to quantify multidimensional ideological polarization by embedding the respondents to a wide variety of political, social and economic topics from the American National Election Studies into a two-dimensional ideological space. By identifying several demograph…

  • Epidemic processes in complex networks

    Open AccessRomualdo Pastor-Satorras, Claudio Castellano et al.ARTICLEReviews of Modern Physics2015

    Complex networks arise in a wide range of biological and sociotechnical systems. Epidemic spreading is central to our understanding of dynamical processes in complex networks, and is of interest to physicists, mathematicians, epidemiologists, and computer and social scientists. This review presents the main results and paradigmatic models in infectious disease modeling and generalized social contagion processes.

  • Evolution and Structure of the Internet

    Open AccessRomualdo Pastor-Satorras, Alessandro VespignaniBOOKEvolution and Structure of the…2004

    This book, first published in 2004, describes the application of statistical physics and complex systems theory to the study of the evolution and structure of the Internet. Using a statistical physics approach the Internet is viewed as a growing system that evolves in time through the addition and removal of nodes and links. This perspective permits us to outline the dynamical theory required for a description of the macroscopic evolution of the …

  • The architecture of complex weighted networks

    Open AccessAlain Barrat, Marc Barthélemy et al.ARTICLEProceedings of the National…2004

    Networked structures arise in a wide array of different contexts such as technological and transportation infrastructures, social phenomena, and biological systems. These highly interconnected systems have recently been the focus of a great deal of attention that has uncovered and characterized their topological complexity. Along with a complex topological structure, real networks display a large heterogeneity in the capacity and intensity of the…

  • Epidemic Spreading in Scale-Free Networks

    Open AccessRomualdo Pastor-Satorras, Alessandro VespignaniARTICLEPhysical Review Letters2001

    The Internet has a very complex connectivity recently modeled by the class of scale-free networks. This feature, which appears to be very efficient for a communications network, favors at the same time the spreading of computer viruses. We analyze real data from computer virus infections and find the average lifetime and persistence of viral strains on the Internet. We define a dynamical model for the spreading of infections on scale-free network…
