Graphs are maximally expressive for higher-order interactions
We demonstrate that graph-based models are fully capable of representing higher-order interactions, and have a long history of being used for precisely this purpose. This stands in contrast to a commo...
New on the arxiv:
βGraphs are maximally expressive for higher-order interactionsβ
arxiv.org/abs/2602.16937
We clarify central misconceptions in the recent literature on "higher-order networks".

The perplexing βconnected cluster axiomβ β Inverse Complexity Lab
Research group on inverse problems in complex systems and network science.
I wrote a blog post about the often stated but never explained assumption that communities in graphs should always be connected.
This is inconsistent with statistical significance and null models that underlie the most widely employed methods.

βUncertainty quantification and posterior sampling for network reconstructionβ
TL;DR; We present an efficient method to sample the entire ensemble of possible network reconstructions that are compatible with an indirect observation, e.g. a dynamics.
