All beauty, richness and harmony in the emergent dynamics of a complex system largely
depend on the specific way in which its elementary components interact. The last twenty-five …

Multistability is the phenomenon of multiple coexistent stable states, which are highly
sensitive to perturbations, initial conditions, system parameters, etc. Multistability has been …

Theoretical models of critical mass have shown how minority groups can initiate social
change dynamics in the emergence of new social conventions. Here, we study an artificial …

In the past years, network theory has successfully characterized the interaction among the
constituents of a variety of complex systems, ranging from biological to technological, and …

Multistability or coexistence of different attractors for a given set of parameters is one of the
most exciting phenomena in dynamical systems. It can be found in different areas of science …

Our understanding of the dynamics of complex networked systems has increased
significantly in the last two decades. However, most of our knowledge is built upon assuming …

Many systems on our planet shift abruptly and irreversibly from the desired state to an
undesired state when forced across a “tipping point”. Some examples are mass extinctions …

This bold and passionate textbook has become a go-to introduction to current and emerging
thinking on the social dimensions of climate change, presenting key concepts and …

Historically, infectious diseases caused considerable damage to human societies, and they
continue to do so today. To help reduce their impact, mathematical models of disease …
