A large number of complex networks are scale-free,—that is, they follow a power-law degree
distribution. Here we propose that the emergence of many scale-free networks is tied to the …

The brain is a complex system comprising a myriad of interacting neurons, posing significant
challenges in understanding its structure, function, and dynamics. Network science has …
