Evolutionary cores of domain co-occurrence networks (2005)

Wuchty, Stefan, Almaas, Eivind

Abstract Background The modeling of complex systems, as disparate as the World Wide Web and the cellular metabolism, as networks has recently uncovered a set of generic organizing principles: Most of...

Evolution and Topology in the Yeast Protein Interaction Network (2004)

Wuchty, Stefan

The integrity of the yeast protein–protein interaction network is maintained by a few highly connected proteins, or hubs, which hold the numerous less-connected proteins together. The structural...

The architecture of biological networks (2003)

Stefan Wuchty, Erszébet Ravasz, Albert-lászló Barabási

Understanding complex systems often requires a bottom-up approach, breaking the system into small and elementary constituents and mapping out the interactions be-tween these components. In many...

Centers of complex networks (2003)

Stefan Wuchty, Peter F. Stadler

Abstract. The central vertices in complex networks are of particular interest because they might play the role of organizational hubs. Here, we consider three different geometric centrality measures,...
