Exciting News! A ground-breaking research on the dynamics of time-varying networks has been accepted at Physical Review Letters! 🎉
The leading author, Evangelos S. Papaefthymiou, is an external collaborator of the Aristarchus Research Center.
The rest of the authors team consists of Costas Iordanou, an Assistant Professor of Network Security, also at European University Cyprus and Fragkiskos Papadopoulos at Cyprus University of Technology. The team has made significant strides in understanding the microscopic kinetics of real-world networks like social interactions, gene activation, and financial strategies. By mapping the discrete dynamics of these networks onto a continuous time series, it has been discovered that their motions are sub-diffusive and well-described by fractional Brownian motion.
This novel approach connects the kinetics of temporal networks with anomalous transport theory, paving the way for developing predictive equations of motion. Such advancements could enable early detection and prevention of natural and human-made disasters.
This is a very important distinction for Cyprus in the field of Natural Sciences.
