Abstract

Interactions that involve a group of people or objects are omnipresent in practice. Some examples include the list of recipients of an email, the group of co-authors of a publication, and the users participating in online discussion threads. These interactions are modeled as hypergraphs in which each hyperedge is a set of nodes constituting an interaction. In a hypergraph, the k-core is the sub-hypergraph within which the degree of each node is at least k. Investigating the k-core structures is valuable in revealing some properties of the hypergraph, one of which is the network behavior when facing attacks. Networks in practice are often prone to attacks by which the attacker removes a portion of the nodes or hyperedges to weaken some properties of the networks. The resilience of the k-cores is an indicator of the robustness of the network against such attacks. In this work, we investigate the core resilience of real-world hypergraphs against deletion attacks. How robust are the core structures of real-world hypergraphs in these attack scenarios? Given the complexity of a real-world hypergraph, how should we supplement the hypergraph with augmented hyperedges to enhance its core resilience? In light of several empirical observations regarding core resilience, we present a two-step method that preserves and strengthens the core structures of the hypergraphs.

Footnotes
2
In this study, for the sake of simplicity, we choose to exclude self-loops (i.e., hyperedges of size 1) as they are not significantly relevant to robustness.
 
3
Identical rank values are each assigned the fractional rank equal to the average of their positions in the ascending order of the rank values.
 
4
The nodes having no incident hyperedges left are assigned core number 0 in this case.
