Summary: This paper proposes a flight conflict network robustness evaluation method based on degree correlation, revealing a close relationship between degree correlation and robustness of flight conflict networks. Assortative and disassortative conflict networks demonstrate different vulnerabilities under various node removal methods.

Summary: In the past decades, research on urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon has made significant progress, but the oversimplification and inadequacy of the urban-rural dichotomy in its definition are becoming increasingly apparent. This study conducts a comprehensive investigation and proposes a new paradigm that treats the entire urban environment as a complex dynamic system, expanding the boundaries of traditional urban environmental research.

Summary: The article explores the relationship between degree distribution entropy and network robustness, finding that degree distribution entropy only sets a lower bound to robustness for randomly configured networks. It is shown that degree distribution entropy does not indicate robustness for networks with the same form of degree distribution, while remaining degree entropy and robustness have a positive monotonic relationship.

Summary: Degree-degree correlation is an important factor in real-world networks that affects cooperation. This study proposes a spatial snowdrift game model on scale-free networks with preferential selection. The results show that larger preferential selection intensity leads to higher levels of cooperation. Moreover, an optimal value of the Pearson correlation coefficient is found, which depends on the cost parameter of the game.

Summary: Haros graphs are a representation of real numbers in the unit interval using graph theory. The degree distribution of Haros graphs provides information about the topological structure and the associated real number. This article presents a comprehensive demonstration of a conjecture concerning the analytical formulation of the degree distribution. A theorem establishes the relationship between Haros graphs, the continued fraction of the associated real number, and symbolic paths in the Farey binary tree. Additionally, an expression for the degree distribution of Haros graphs can be derived from an additional conclusion that is continuous and piecewise linear in subintervals defined by Farey fractions.

Summary: This study introduces a reference model for analyzing the structures and dynamics of hypergraphs, called the hyper dK-series. It extends the dK-series for dyadic networks to hypergraphs and preserves certain properties of the original hypergraphs. Numerical simulations show that the higher-order hyper dK-series better preserves certain attributes of the original hypergraph. Furthermore, the study finds that the size of hyperedges has a greater impact on dynamics than the properties of nodes, and that degree correlation and redundancy in empirical hypergraphs promote cooperation.

Summary: This paper presents a method based on generating functions to estimate the minimum number of driver nodes required for controlling a directed network through node in- and out-degree targeted removals. The proposed method is validated on synthetic and real-world networks and shown to work reasonably well. Additionally, when the fraction of removed nodes is below 10%, the analytical results of random removals can also be used to predict the outcomes of targeted node removals.

Summary: This paper explores the self-similarity of complex networks using the degree-degree distance, proposing a box-covering algorithm to calculate the dimension of networks based on this distance. The results show that some complex networks exhibit self-similarity from the perspective of degree-degree distance, indicating the reasonableness of the proposed method.

Summary: By introducing a theoretical directed network model, research shows that the internal structure of filter bubbles exhibits negative and assortative degree correlations, which can effectively resist the spreading of non-preferred information.

Summary: The basic reproduction number R-0 is an important indicator of the severity of an epidemic outbreak. Assortative and disassortative mixing have different effects on virus transmission, and the results in degree correlated networks may not be universal but hold true for bimodal degree distribution and assortative mixing networks.

Summary: Recent brain research has shown a high correlation between structure and function, but the inherent logic of how neurons connect has not been identified. By comparing artificial and biological neural networks, similarities were found, indicating that the structure contains all information yet is not exclusive. The influence of weights and neuron offset value shows different adaptation behavior, raising new questions in the fields of artificial and biological information processing research.

Summary: Ureilites meteorite fragments with different levels of shock were studied using SEM, XRD, and MRS. It was found that there is a correlation between the level of shock recorded by silicates and the formation of different carbon polymorphs. XRD patterns showed the presence of nano-graphite in all samples, with nanodiamond in the least shocked sample and both nano- and micro-diamonds in the more shocked samples. XRD results also supported the formation of micrometer-diamonds with the assistance of (Fe, Ni)-alloys at pressures >10 GPa.

Summary: Observational data from the Swedish IPF Registry showed that anti-fibrotic treatment, disease severity, and phenotypes are closely associated with outcomes of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Treated patients had better survival rates, with specific physiological factors and phenotypes playing a role in predicting outcomes.

Summary: More than 80% of medical personnel worry about COVID-19-related infection and experience newly appearing anxiety, airway or heart symptoms, and skin allergies. COVID-19-related worry significantly associates with all variables in the anxiety and respiratory symptom clusters, while new-onset skin allergies are related to a previous history of allergies.
