Diffusive capture process on complex networks.

چکیده
We study the dynamical properties of a diffusing lamb captured by a diffusing lion on the complex networks with various sizes of N. We find that the lifetime {T} of a lamb scales as {T} approximately N and the survival probability S(N-->infinity, t) becomes finite on scale-free networks with degree exponent gamma > 3. However, S(N, t) for gamma < 3 has a long-living tail on tree-structured scale-free networks and decays exponentially on looped scale-free networks. This suggests that the second moment of degree distribution {k2} is the relevant factor for the dynamical properties in the diffusive capture process. We numerically find that the normalized number of capture events at a node with degree k, n(k), decreases as n(k) approximately k(-sigma). When gamma < 3, n(k) still increases anomalously for k approximately kmax, where kmax is the maximum value of k of given networks with size N. We analytically show that n(k) satisfies the relation n(k) approximately {k2}P(k) for any degree distribution P(k) and the total number of capture events Ntot is proportional to {k2}, which causes the gamma -dependent behavior of S(N, t) and {T}.

Diffusive capture processes for information search
We show how effectively the diffusive capture processes (DCP) on complex networks can be applied to information search in the networks. Numerical simulations show that our method generates only 2% of traffic compared with the most popular flooding-based query-packet-forwarding (FB) algorithm. We find that the average searching time, 〈T 〉, of the our model is more scalable than another well know...

Over the last decade, an enormous interest and activity in complex networks have been witnessed within the physics community. On the other hand, diffusion and its theory, have equipped the toolbox of the physicist for decades. In this paper, we will demonstrate how to combine these two seemingly different topics in a fruitful manner. In particular, we will review and develop further, an auxilia...
متن کاملKnowledge and Networks – Key Sources of Power in Global Health; Comment on “Knowledge, Moral Claims and the Exercise of Power in Global Health”
Shiffman rightly raises questions about who exercises power in global health, suggesting power is a complex concept, and the way it is exercised is often opaque. Power that is not based on financial strength but on knowledge or experience, is difficult to estimate, and yet it may provide the legitimacy to make moral claims on what is, or ought to be, on global health agendas. Twenty years ago p...
