abstract |
Networks are fundamental for reconstructing the dynamics of many systems, but have
the drawback that they are restricted to binary relations. Hypergraphs extend relational
structure to multi-vertex edges, but are essentially set-theoretic and unable to represent
essential structural properties. Hypernetworks are a natural multidimensional generalisation
of networks, representing n-ary relations by simplices with n vertices. The assembly
of vertices to make simplices is key for moving between levels in multilevel systems,
and integrating dynamics between levels. It is argued that hypernetworks are necessary,
if not sufficient, for reconstructing the dynamics of multilevel complex systems. |
