Abstract

In adaptive networks, fragmentation transitions have been observed in which the network breaks into disconnected components. We present an analytical approach for calculating the transition point in general adaptive network models. Using the example of an adaptive voter model, we demonstrate that the proposed approach yields good agreement with numerical results.
