DESCRIPTION:Name:  ALBERT-LÁSZLÓ BARABÁSI\n\nTitle:  Understanding the r
 ole of physicality in networks\n\nAbstract:\n\nI will explore the applicat
 ions of the network science toolset to physical networks\, like the brain 
 or metamaterials\, which are networks whose links are physical entities th
 at cannot cross each other. Link physicality affects both the evolution an
 d the structure of a network\, in a way that is not captured by current gr
 aph-based approaches. Yet\, the existence of an exact mapping between phys
 ical networks and independent sets allows us to derive the onset of physic
 al effects and the emergence of a jamming transition\, demonstrating that 
 physicality impacts the network structure even when the total volume of th
 e links is negligible.
