From bird flocking to neural dynamics, complex systems generate fascinating structures and correlations. Often, seemingly simple dynamics lead to intricate emergent properties. Despite their visceral appeal, defining complex systems lacks universal agreement.

Ever wondered how criminal organizations maintain their grip despite law enforcement efforts? Our latest pre-print delves into the intricate dance between criminal networks and disruption strategies, shedding light on their internal dynamics and resilience to intervention. Here’s a glimpse:

Abrupt, system-wide transitions can be endogenously generated by seemingly stable networks of interacting dynamical units, such as mode …

A common assumption is that well-connectedness of agents translates to dynamic importance. In this paper I show how this assertion is in fact false, and we cannot abstract away from dynamics before analyzing complex systems
