February 11, 2019 -Community structure in networks: the effect of communities on a preferential attachment model and epidemic spreading (Emily Fischer, Cornell)
Community structure in networks: the effect of communities on a preferential attachment model and epidemic spreading (Emily Fischer, Cornell)
Online social networks and other networks of interest are known to exhibit community structure, where a community is defined to be a highly interconnected group of nodes with possibly shared traits or features. However, classic network models, such as the preferential attachment model, do not account for community structure. In this talk, I will present […]

February 12, 2019 -Subgraph statistics (Benny Sudakov, ETH Zurich)
Subgraph statistics (Benny Sudakov, ETH Zurich)
Given integers $k,l$ and a graph $G$, how large can be the fraction of $k$-vertex subsets of $G$ which span exactly $l$ edges? The systematic study of this very natural question was recently initiated by Alon, Hefetz, Krivelevich and Tyomkyn who also proposed several interesting conjectures on this topic. In this talk we discuss a theorem […]

Cracking the Code: Predicting Properties of Material Fracture Networks using Machine Learning (Allon Percus, CGU)
Understanding how fluid flows through heterogeneous materials, and how it can make these materials fail, are among the hardest challenges in materials science. Experiments and simulations show that flow through subsurface rock is mostly limited to a small subnetwork, or backbone, of fractures. Identifying this backbone would allow for a large speedup in flow and […]
