However, very little research has been done to investigate the robustness of nodes in multiplex networks against targeted attacks. In this paper, we first propose a new measure, MultiCoreRank, to calculate the global influence of nodes in a multiplex network. The measure models the influence propagation on the core lattice of a multiplex network after the core decomposition. Then, to study how the structural features can affect the influence robustness of nodes, we compare the dynamics of node influence on three types of multiplex networks: assortative, neutral, and disassortative, where the assortativity is measured by the correlation coefficient of the degrees of nodes across different layers. We found that assortative networks have higher resilience against attack than neutral and disassortative networks. The structure of disassortative networks tends to break down quicker under attack.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.07617v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2309.07617v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"influence-robustness-of-nodes-in-multiplex","repo_url":"https://github.com/Boqian-Ma/MultiCoreRank","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
