Abstract

Dual Phase Evolution (DPE) is a widespread natural process in which complex systems adapt and self-organise by switching alternately between two phases: a phase of global interactions and a phase of local interactions. We show that in evolving networks of agents, DPE can give rise to a wide variety of topologies. In particular, it can lead to the spontaneous emergence of stabilising modular structure.
