Optimal transport on complex networks

B Danila, Y Yu, JA Marsh, KE Bassler - Physical Review E, 2006 - APS
We present a heuristic algorithm for the optimization of transport on complex networks.
Previously proposed network transport optimization algorithms aim at avoiding or reducing link …

[HTML][HTML] Quantifying randomness in real networks

…, P Mahadevan, A Vahdat, KE Bassler… - Nature …, 2015 - nature.com
… A node has k-coreness k c if it belongs to the k c -core but not to the k c +1-core. An edge
has k-density k d if it belongs to the k d -core but not to the k d +1-core. The error bars indicate …

[PDF][PDF] Severe COVID-19 is marked by a dysregulated myeloid cell compartment

J Schulte-Schrepping, N Reusch, D Paclik, K Baßler… - Cell, 2020 - cell.com
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a mild to moderate respiratory tract infection, however,
a subset of patients progress to severe disease and respiratory failure. The mechanism …

[HTML][HTML] Efficient and exact sampling of simple graphs with given arbitrary degree sequence

CI Del Genio, H Kim, Z Toroczkai, KE Bassler - PloS one, 2010 - journals.plos.org
Uniform sampling from graphical realizations of a given degree sequence is a fundamental
component in simulation-based measurements of network observables, with applications …

[HTML][HTML] Jamming is limited in scale-free systems

Z Toroczkai, KE Bassler - Nature, 2004 - nature.com
A large number of complex networks are scale-free 1 , 2 — that is, they follow a power-law
degree distribution. Here we propose that the emergence of many scale-free networks is tied …

All scale-free networks are sparse

CI Del Genio, T Gross, KE Bassler - Physical review letters, 2011 - APS
We study the realizability of scale-free networks with a given degree sequence, showing
that the fraction of realizable sequences undergoes two first-order transitions at the values 0 …

[HTML][HTML] Single-cell meta-analysis of SARS-CoV-2 entry genes across tissues and demographics

…, Z Andrusivova, I Angelidis, O Ashenberg, K Bassler… - Nature medicine, 2021 - nature.com
Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and accessory proteases (TMPRSS2 and CTSL)
are needed for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) cellular entry…

Improved community structure detection using a modified fine-tuning strategy

Y Sun, B Danila, K Josić, KE Bassler - Europhysics Letters, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
The community structure of a complex network can be determined by finding the partitioning
of its nodes that maximizes modularity. Many of the proposed algorithms for doing this work …

Competition-driven network dynamics: Emergence of a scale-free leadership structure and collective efficiency

M Anghel, Z Toroczkai, KE Bassler, G Korniss - Physical review letters, 2004 - APS
… is very close to unity, which means that kNk is independent of k and the other parameters
in the scaling regime. Since k is the influence of a leader with k followers, kNk represents the …
