Fun collaborative project with Istvan Z. Kiss (London) and Peter Simon to understand how higher-order interactions affect the dynamics of contagion processes now out in J Math Bio: doi.org/10.1007/s002...

Decoding how higher-order network interactions shape contagion dynamics - Journal of Mathematical Biology

Complex contagion models that involve contagion along higher-order structures, such as simplicial complexes and hypergraphs, yield new classes of mean-field models. Interestingly, the differential equ...

Can a network be physically be a graph but effectively be a hypergraph? Tiago Pereira is speaking about emergent hypernetworks in the focus session “Network Dynamical Systems” at @netsciconf.bsky.social.
