            Hierarchical organisation in complex networks


Hierarchical organisation is a ubiquitous feature of a large variety of 
systems studied in natural- and social sciences. One of the related key 
problems is quantifying the importance of hierarchical organisation in 
the structure of the network representing the interactions or 
connections between the fundamental units of the studied system. The 
first part of the talk shall provide a brief overview of a few different 
hierarchy measures aimed at grasping the signs of hierarchy in a network 
in a quantitative way. As an interesting application, the second part of 
the talk will focus on how can we apply the concept of hierarchy and 
hierarchy measures for providing a novel type of ranking between 
scientific journals.
