Political corruption is inherently an affiliation process linking agents to corruption cases; yet it is often studied via one-mode projections that connect co-offenders within the same scandal, implying a loss of information that potentially …
Urban scaling theory posits that urban indicators follow power‐law relations with population, yet the evolution of these patterns - and the role of regional differences in settings marked by social inequalities and unplanned urbanization - remains …
Many efforts have been made to explore systems that show significant deviations from predictions related to the standard statistical mechanics. The present work introduces a unified formalism that connects divergences, generalized free energies, …
The spatiotemporal inhomogeneous-homogeneous transition in the dynamics and structures of solar photospheric turbulence is studied by applying the complexity-entropy analysis to Hinode images of a vortical region of supergranular junctions in the …
Paper fragments in free fall constitute a simple yet paradigmatic mechanical system exhibiting remarkably complex motions. Despite a long history of investigation, this system has defied comprehensive first-principles modeling, motivating the …
Understanding the high-pressure phase behavior of carbon dioxide-hydrocarbon mixtures is of considerable interest owing to their wide range of applications. Under certain conditions, these systems are not amenable to direct visual monitoring, and …
Criminal activities are predominantly due to males, with females exhibiting a significantly lower involvement, especially in serious offenses. This pattern extends to organized crime, where females are often perceived as less tolerant to illegal …
We examine the dynamics of a system influenced by a backbone structure, incorporating linear non-local terms that account for both irreversible and reversible processes, such as absorption and adsorption--desorption. Additionally, we introduce …
Quantitative analysis of visual arts has recently expanded to encompass a more extensive array of artworks due to the availability of large-scale digitized art collections. Consistent with formal analyses by art historians, many of these studies …
From the analytical perspective, we investigate the diffusion processes that arise from a system composed of a surface with a backbone structure coupled to the bulk via the boundary conditions. The problem is formulated in terms of diffusion …
