In this paper the robustness of network synchronizability against random deletion of nodes, i.e. errors, in dynamical … Laplacian and the order parameter quantifying the degree of phase synchrony were adopted, and the synchronizability robustness …, the robustness of its synchronizability against random removal of nodes declines, i.e. the more the number of randomly …

An important property of networked systems is their robustness against removal of network nodes, through either random … optimal robustness according to a given measure, one is often instead faced with an existing network that cannot feasibly be … substantially modified or redesigned, yet whose robustness can be improved by a lesser degree of modification. We present empirical …
