    Echo chambers and information transmission biases in homophilic and heterophilic networks

    We study how information transmission biases arise by the interplay between the structural properties of the network and the dynamics of the information in synthetic scale-free homophilic/heterophilic networks...

    Impact of urban structure on infectious disease spreading

    The ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has been holding the world hostage for several years now. Mobility is key to viral spreading and its restriction is the main non-pharmaceutical interventions to fight the virus ...

    An ecological approach to structural flexibility in online communication systems

    Human cognitive abilities are limited resources. Today, in the age of cheap information—cheap to produce, to manipulate, to disseminate—this cognitive bottleneck translates into hypercompetition for rewarding ...

    Impact of origin-destination information in epidemic spreading

    The networked structure of contacts shapes the spreading of epidemic processes. Recent advances on network theory have improved our understanding of the epidemic processes at large scale. The relevance of seve...

    A Multilayer perspective for the analysis of urban transportation systems

    Public urban mobility systems are composed by several transportation modes connected together. Most studies in urban mobility and planning often ignore the multi-layer nature of transportation systems consider...

    Characterising two-pathogen competition in spatially structured environments

    Different pathogens spreading in the same host population often generate complex co-circulation dynamics because of the many possible interactions between the pathogens and the host immune system, the host lif...

    Impact of Social Punishment on Cooperative Behavior in Complex Networks

    Social punishment is a mechanism by which cooperative individuals spend part of their resources to penalize defectors. In this paper, we study the evolution of cooperation in 2-person evolutionary games on net...

    Modeling human mobility responses to the large-scale spreading of infectious diseases

    Current modeling of infectious diseases allows for the study of realistic scenarios that include population heterogeneity, social structures and mobility processes down to the individual level. The advances in...
