Adaptive Networks: Of social interactions and mathematical tools — •Anne-Ly Do — Max-Planck-Institut für Physik komplexer Systeme, Dresden

Adaptive networks are characterized by the co-evolution of local and topological degrees of freedom. Prime examples are networks of social interactions: Individuals are altered and shaped through interaction with others. On the other hand, they can often decide with whom to interact. Adaptive network models of social systems have attracted keen interest as they promise to provide the key to a number of prominently discussed phenomena such as fragmentation of groups into like-minded subgroups, evolution or break-down of social structures promoting cooperation, and emergence of fairness and leadership. In this talk, I review recent studies that link emergent phenomena in social systems to adaptive feedback in the respective interaction nets. Moreover, I discuss the analytical techniques used, thus aiming to outline both, findings and tools.
