Control principles of complex systems

ABSTRACT
A reflection of our ultimate understanding of a complex system is our ability to control its behavior. Typically, control has multiple prerequisites: it requires an accurate map of the network that governs the interactions between the system’s components, a quantitative description of the dynamical laws that govern the temporal behavior of each component, and an ability to influence the state and temporal behavior of a selected subset of the components. With deep roots in dynamical systems and control theory, notions of control and controllability have taken a new life recently in the study of complex networks, inspiring several fundamental questions: What are the control principles of complex systems? How do networks organize themselves to balance control with functionality? To address these questions here recent advances on the controllability and the control of complex networks are reviewed, exploring the intricate interplay between the network topology and dynamical laws. The pertinent mathematical results are matched with empirical findings and applications. Uncovering the control principles of complex systems can help us explore and ultimately understand the fundamental laws that govern their behavior.

#Econophysics

Dr. Eugene H. Stanley (1941–) is one of the most influencing figures in the discipline of #Econophysics. He was born in Oklahoma City, U.S. and was awarded the Ph.D. in physics at Harvard University. In 1976 he joined Boston University as Professor of Physics, and was promoted to Professor of Physiology and University Professor, in 1978 and 1979, respectively. In 2007 he was offered joint appointments with the Chemistry and Biomedical Engineering Departments, and in 2011 he was made William Fairfield Warren Distinguished Professor.
