Core-periphery structure, the arrangement of a network into dense core and sparse periphery, is versatile descriptor various social, biological, technological networks. In practice, different core-periphery algorithms are often applied interchangeably, despite fact that they can yield inconsistent descriptions structure. For example, two most widely used algorithms, k-cores decomposition classi...

According to recent proposals in formal syntax, the left-most position in the C(omplementizer)-layer is dedicated to the representation of the context of utterance (call this hypothesis LP). This idea has had little impact on semantic theories of indexicals. The reason is that indexicals are regarded, after Kaplan’s (1989) Logic of Demonstratives (LD), as directly referential and rigid. However...

We unravel how mechanical stress heterogeneity and core-periphery asymmetry in tissue spheroids are modulated by their granular micro-structure, means of simulations with a deformable cell model.

Many companies have adopted technology driven social learning platforms such as social customer relationship management (crowdsourcing customer support) to support knowledge sharing among customers. A number of these selfevolving, online customer support communities have reported the emergence of a core–periphery knowledge sharing network structure. In this study, we investigate why such a stru...

In this paper we investigate the core-periphery structure of the Italian interbank market. We construct quarterly networks from a dataset containing all overnight interbank transactions on the e-MID trading platform from January 1999 to December 2010. In order to shed light on the hierarchical structure of the banking network, we estimate different versions of a core-periphery model. Our main n...

People judge whether they want to be high-skilled workers by considering the economic returns and effort required skill. This study considers two regions: an advanced industrial region, where increase variety of goods through innovation, underdeveloped region innovation does not occur. Here, become high-skilled, regions origin potential abilities. Numerical simulations show that proportion reac...
