Topological Aspects Of Critical Systems And Networks (With Cd-rom) - Proceedings Of The International Symposium

by Kousuke Yakubo (Editor), Satoshi Tanda (Editor), Hiroshi Amitsuka (Editor), Goo Ishikawa (Editor), Kazuo Machino (Editor)

Overview

This volume gives an interdisciplinary discussion on the topological aspects of general networks and critical systems for physicists, chemists, biologists, mathematicians, medical scientists, social scientists, and other related researchers. Subjects as diverse as the general properties of complex networks, complexity in social science, patterns in biological objects, and criticality in pure and applied physics are represented. The book is essential for researchers in a wide range of scientific and technological fields related to these areas.
