Phase Transitions in Communication Networks with Limited Elements of Valence

Abstract

Abstract-It is shown that the communication networks with low-valence elements are able to undergo phase transitions. In the result of them the number of elements having the maximum number of bonds increases discontinuously. Such a phase transition can also be interpreted as a discontinuous transition from set of isolated elements to a branched network.

Degradation of Higher Education in Kazakhstan as an Example of Post-Transitional Crisis

“…Attempts of direct administrative intervention do not resolve crisis, but exacerbate it. We emphasize that the issue here is not in someone's evil will, but a comparison of the above two evolutionary schemes clearly shows that the post-Soviet countries are facing difficulties in an objective manner, which seems to be associated with a feature of the behavior of information flows in evolving sociosystem [18]. This again emphasizes the need to use non-traditional means, in particular, informal institutions formed artificially.…”

“…All formal institutions which have developed so far in the sphere of the higher education, inertia of consciousness and all that defines high value of innovative resistance [17,18] in the academic environment will act against it either explicitly or implicitly.…”
