Interplay between function and structure in complex networks.
We show that abrupt structural transitions can arise in functionally optimal networks, driven by small changes in the level of transport congestion. Our results offer an explanation as to why so many diverse species of network structure arise in nature (e.g., fungal systems) under essentially the sa...
