Abstract:Network models are widely applied to describe connectivity and flow in diverse systems. In contrast, the fact that many connected systems move through space as the result of dynamic restructuring has received little attention. Therefore, we introduce the concept of 'traveling networks', and we analyze a tree-based model where the leaves are stochastically manipulated to grow, branch, and retract. We derive how these restructuring rates determine key attributes of network structure and motion, enabling a compac… Show more
