We propose a new local, deterministic and parameter-free algorithm that detects fuzzy and crisp overlapping communities in a weighted network and simultaneously reveals their hierarchy. Using a local fitness function, the algorithm greedily expands natural communities of seeds until the whole graph is covered. The hierarchy of communities is obtained analytically by calculating resolution levels at which communities grow rather than numerically by testing different resolution levels. This analytic procedure is not only more exact than its numerical alternatives such as LFM and GCE but also much faster. Critical resolution levels can be identified by searching for intervals in which large changes of the resolution do not lead to growth of communities. We tested our algorithm on benchmark graphs and on a network of 492 papers in information science. Combined with a specific post-processing, the algorithm gives much more precise results on LFR benchmarks with high overlap compared to other algorithms and performs very similar to GCE.

Software is essential in modern research; it plays vital roles at multiple stages of the research lifecycle. The term Research Software is widely used in the academic community but, what do we mean when we use these terms? Software and research? When you think of software, you may think of a digital object that is executed on a machine. Yet software is more than just this, it is a complex and evolving artifact. It may be a concept or a project designed to solve a puzzle by a team or a community that develops its functionalities and algorithms, which might not be digital objects. Furthermore, the software artifacts are digital objects, e.g., executables and source code files for different environments. These digital artifacts, which are used in a scholarly setting, might be important in the research process, but should all these be considered Research Software? This report is the result of a discussion examining the scope of the community definition of the FAIR principles for Research Software as part of the work in the FAIR for Research Software working group (FAIR4RS). We aim to clarify the scope of the FAIR principles by identifying which software artifacts the FAIR principles should apply to. This discussion portrayed a complex landscape of software uses in research and existing definitions that can help to better understand the complexity of different types of software in academia. Finally we determine the scope of the FAIR4RS with a short and concise definition of Research Software as a separate metaphor of software in research.

The aim of this paper is to introduce and assess three algorithms for the identification of overlapping thematic structures in networks of papers. We implemented three recently proposed approaches to the identification of overlapping and hierarchical substructures in graphs and applied the corresponding algorithms to a network of 492 information-science papers coupled via their cited sources. The thematic substructures obtained and overlaps produced by the three hierarchical cluster algorithms were compared to a content-based categorisation, which we based on the interpretation of titles, abstracts, and keywords. We defined sets of papers dealing with three topics located on different levels of aggregation: h-index, webometrics, and bibliometrics. We identified these topics with branches in the dendrograms produced by the three cluster algorithms and compared the overlapping topics they detected with one another and with the three predefined paper sets. We discuss the advantages and drawbacks of applying the three approaches to paper networks in research fields.

The compressibility of a two-dimensional electron system with spin in a spatially correlated random potential and a quantizing magnetic field is investigated. Electron-electron interaction is treated with the Hartree-Fock method. Numerical results for the influences of interaction and disorder on the compressibility as a function of the particle density and the strength of the magnetic field are presented. Localization-delocalization transitions associated with a highly compressible region in the energy spectrum are found at half-integer filling factors. Coulomb blockade effects are found near integer fillings in the regions of low compressibility. Results are compared with recent experiments.

Research software is an integral part of scientific investigations. The paper identifies challenges, risks and new opportunities in research software publication and discovery. The diverse code discovery landscape is mapped and agents with their business models identified. Examples for discovery tools and strategies are given to support the classification. Reproducibility of research and reuse of code may improve if software discovery was easier. Researchers conducting a search for existing software in the context of a state-of-the-art report or a software management plan could use this paper as a guideline for their information retrieval strategy.

As recognition of the vital importance of software for contemporary research is increasing, Research Software Engineering (RSE) is emerging as a discipline in its own right. We present an inventory of relevant research questions about RSE as a basis for future research and initiatives to advance the field, highlighting selected literature and initiatives. This work is the outcome of a RSE community workshop held as part of the 2020 International Series of Online Research Software Events (SORSE) which identified and prioritized key questions across three overlapping themes: people, policy and infrastructure. Almost half of the questions focus on the people theme, which addresses issues related to career paths, recognition and motivation; recruitment and retention; skills; and diversity, equity and inclusion. However, the people and policy themes have the same number of prioritized questions. We recommend that different types of stakeholders, such as RSE employers and policy makers, take responsibility for supporting or encouraging answering of these questions by organizations that have an interest. Initiatives such as the International Council of RSE Associations should also be engaged in this work.

The quantum phase diagram of disordered wires in a strong magnetic field is studied as a function of wire width and energy. The two-terminal conductance shows zero-temperature discontinuous transitions between exactly integer plateau values and zero. In the vicinity of this transition, the chiral metal-insulator transition (CMIT), states are identified that are superpositions of edge states with opposite chirality. The bulk contribution of such states is found to decrease with increasing wire width. Based on exact diagonalization results for the eigenstates and their participation ratios, we conclude that these states are characteristic for the CMIT, have the appearance of nonchiral edges states, and are thereby distinguishable from other states in the quantum Hall wire, namely, extended edge states, two-dimensionally (2D) localized, quasi-1D localized, and 2D critical states.

An algorithm for the detection of overlapping natural communities in networks was proposed by Lancichinetti, Fortunato, and Kertesz (LFK) last year. The LFK algorithm constructs natural communities of (in principle) all nodes of a graph by maximising the local fitness of communities. The resulting modules can overlap. The generation of communities can easily be repeated for many values of resolution; thus allowing different views on the network at different resolutions. We implemented the main idea of the LFK algorithm---to generate natural communities of each node of a network---in a different way. We start with a value of the resolution parameter that is high enough for each node to be its own natural community. As soon as the resolution is reduced, each node acquires other nodes as members of its community, i.e. natural communities grow. For each community found at a certain resolution level we calculate the next lower resolution where a node is added. After adding a node to a community of a seed node we check whether it is also the natural community of a node that we have already analysed. In this case, we can stop expanding the seed node's community. We tested our algorithm on a small benchmark graph and on a network of about 500 papers in information science (weighted with the Salton index of bibliographic coupling). In our tests, this approach results in characteristic ranges of resolution where a large resolution change does not lead to a growth of the natural community. Such stable modules were also obtained by applying the LFK algorithm but since we determine communities for all resolution values in one run, our approach is faster than the LFK reference. And our algorithm reveals the hierarchical structure of the graph more easily.

Quantum transport properties in quantum Hall wires in the presence of spatially correlated disordered magnetic fields are investigated numerically. It is found that the correlation drastically changes the transport properties associated with the edge state, in contrast to the naive expectation that the correlation simply reduces the effect of disorder. In the presence of correlation, the separation between the successive conductance-plateau transitions becomes larger than the bulk Landau-level separation determined by the mean value of the disordered magnetic fields. The transition energies coincide with the Landau levels in an effective magnetic field stronger than the mean value of the disordered magnetic field. For a long wire, the strength of this effective magnetic field is of the order of the maximum value of the magnetic fields in the system. It is shown that the effective field is determined by a part where the stronger magnetic-field region connects both edges of the wire.

The spin splitting of the electronic subbands in a parabolically confined quantum wire in a strong magnetic field is calculated using the self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation. The effective $g$-factor and the critical density at which the subbands become almost spin-degenerate are determined. The results are compared with recent experimental data.

Abstract Software is increasingly acknowledged as valid research output. Academic libraries adapt to this change to become research software-ready. Software publication and citation are key areas in this endeavor. We present and discuss the current state of the practice of software publication and software citation, and discuss four areas of activity that libraries engage in: (1) technical infrastructure, (2) training and support, (3) software management and curation, (4) policies.

Usually the boundary of a community in a network is drawn between nodes and thus crosses its outgoing links. If we construct overlapping communities by applying the link-clustering approach nodes and links interchange their roles. Therefore, boundaries must drawn through the nodes shared by two or more communities. For the purpose of community evaluation we define a conductance of boundary nodes of overlapping communities analogously to the graph conductance of boundary-crossing links used to partition a graph into disjoint communities. We show that conductance of boundary nodes (or normalised node cut) can be deduced from ordinary graph conductance of disjoint clusters in the network's weighted line graph introduced by Evans and Lambiotte (2009) to get overlapping communities of nodes in the original network. We test whether our definition can be used to construct meaningful overlapping communities with a local greedy algorithm of link clustering. In this note we present encouraging results we obtained for Zachary's karate-club network.

Abstract The quantum phase diagram of disordered quantum wires in a strong magnetic field is reviewed. For uncorrelated disorder potential the 2‐terminal conductance, as calculated with the numerical transfer matrix method, shows zero temperature discontinuous transitions between exactly integer plateau values and zero. This is explained by the dimensional crossover of the bulk localisation length, which drives a transition from delocalised to localised edge states. In the thermodynamic limit, fixing the aspect ratio of the wire , there is a transition from the one dimensional chiral metal of extended edge states to localisation along the wire. In the vicinity of this chiral metal insulator transition (CMIT), states are identified which are superpositions of edge states with opposite chirality. The bulk contribution of such states is found to decrease with increasing wire width. Based on exact diagonalisation results for the eigenstates and their participation ratios, we conclude that these states are characteristic for the CMIT, and have the appearance of nonchiral edges states. Thereby these states are distinguishable from other states in the quantum Hall wire, namely, extended edge states, two‐dimensionally (2D) localized, quasi‐1D localized, and 2D critical states. In the presence of spatially correlated random potential we find with the numerical transfermatrix method that the potential correlation results in a shift of quantized conductance plateaus in long wires proportional to the strength of the random potential. This shift is found to be insensitive to the strength of magnetic fields and the same for all plateaus. A semiclassical explanation of this effect is proposed. We conclude with an outlook on modfications of the quantum phase diagram due to the spin degree of freedom of the electrons and their interactions. We discuss the stability of the phase diagram at finite temperature. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Abstract: Research software plays a fundamental role in modern scholarly research. Ensuring that this software is Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR) is essential for enabling reproducibility, enhancing transparency, safeguarding sustainability, and driving scientific progress. The FAIR Principles for Research Software (FAIR4RS Principles) were established in 2022 through an international collaborative effort to provide a general framework for making software FAIR [10.15497/RDA00068]. Similar to the FAIR Principles for Scientific Data, the FAIR4RS Principles remain aspirational by design and do not provide details for their concrete implementation. The FAIR Biomedical Research Software (FAIR-BioRS) Guidelines were created in 2023 to provide actionable instructions for making biomedical research software compliant with the FAIR4RS Principles [10.1038/s41597-023-02463-x]. Although most elements of the FAIR-BioRS guidelines are not specific to biomedical research software, and community feedback suggested they be generalized to all research software, such generalization needs further cross-disciplinary input. Domain-agnostic guidelines would support research software engineers in aligning their software with the FAIR4RS Principles, as evidenced by the FAIR4RS review survey [10.5281/zenodo.15381365]. Acting on this need, authors of the FAIR-BioRS guidelines initiated the Task Force “Actionable Guidelines for the FAIR Research Software (Actionable FAIR4RS)” in December 2024 under the Research Software Alliance (ReSA) [researchsoft.org/tf-actionable-fair4rs/]. The Task Force consists of a diverse international team of researchers , research software engineers and research managers from various fields, including software engineering, knowledge representation, biomedical research, and data science. The Task Force works to create and provide actionable and domain-agnostic guidelines for implementing the FAIR4RS Principles, through a comprehensive, community-driven methodology. Building on the FAIR-BioRS guidelines, the Task Force began by conducting an in-depth analysis of the FAIR4RS Principles and identified six key categories where actionable instructions were needed to comply with the principles: identifiers, metadata for software publication and discovery, standards for inputs/outputs, qualified references, metadata for reuse, and licenses. For each category, a dedicated sub-group is currently conducting literature reviews, data analyses, community outreach and discussion sessions to identify how the principles can be practically satisfied. Some of the challenges include identifying suitable identifiers, archival repositories, metadata standards, and best practices across research domains. By the time of our presentation at deRSE26, we expect the first draft of the guidelines to be ready for community review. In our presentation, we will provide an overview of the Task Force, present the draft guidelines, and outline opportunities for community involvement in shaping the guidelines further. We believe this effort aligns well with several deRSE26 conference topics, including “cross-disciplinary advancement”, “research software metadata”, “open science & collaboration”, “reproducibility”, and others. Given the progressive adoption of the FAIR4RS Principles [10.5281/ZENODO.10816032], including by funders and research organizations, we expect this presentation to provide attendees at deRSE26 with an understanding of how they can satisfy the FAIR4RS Principles for their own research software through the actionable, easy-to-follow, and easy-to-implement guidelines.
