The functionality of nodes in a network is often described by the structural feature of belonging to the giant component. However, when dealing with problems like transport, a more appropriate functionality criterion is for a node to belong to the networks backbone, where the flow of information and of other physical quantities (such as current) occurs. Here we study percolation in a model of interdependent resistor networks and show the effect of spatiality on their coupled functioning. We do this on a realistic model of spatial networks, featuring a Poisson distribution of link-lengths. We find that interdependent resistor networks are significantly more vulnerable than their percolation-based counterparts, featuring first-order phase transitions at link-lengths where the mutual giant component still emerges continuously. We explain this apparent contradiction by tracing the origin of the increased vulnerability of interdependent transport to the crucial role played by the dandling ends. Moreover, we interpret these differences by considering an heterogeneous $k$-core percolation process which enables to define a one-parameter family of functionality criteria whose constraints become more and more stringent. Our results highlight the importance that different definitions of nodes functionality have on the collective properties of coupled processes, and provide better understanding of the problem of interdependent transport in many real-world networks.
In many real network systems, nodes usually cooperate with each other and form groups, in order to enhance their robustness to risks. This motivates us to study a new type of percolation, group percolation, in interdependent networks under attacks. I
Real data show that interdependent networks usually involve inter-similarity. Intersimilarity means that a pair of interdependent nodes have neighbors in both networks that are also interdependent (Parshani et al cite{PAR10B}). For example, the coupl
Cascading failures in complex systems have been studied extensively using two different models: $k$-core percolation and interdependent networks. We combine the two models into a general model, solve it analytically and validate our theoretical resul
Many real-world networks are coupled together to maintain their normal functions. Here we study the robustness of multiplex networks with interdependent and interconnected links under k-core percolation, where a node fails when it connects to a thres
The structure of real-world multilayer infrastructure systems usually exhibits anisotropy due to constraints of the embedding space. For example, geographical features like mountains, rivers and shores influence the architecture of critical infrastru
