Abstract
Modelling systems with networks has been a powerful approach to tame the complexity of several phenomena. Unfortunately, the large number of variables to take into consideration often makes concrete problems difficult to handle. Methods of dimensional reduction are useful tools to rescale a complex network down to a low-dimensional effective system and thus to capture its global dynamical features. Here we study the application of the degree-weighted and spectral reduction methods to an important class of dynamical processes on networks: the propagation of credit shocks within an interbank network, modelled according to the DebtRank algorithm. We introduce an effective version of the dynamics, characterized by functions with continuous derivatives that can be handled by the dimensional reduction. We test the reduction methods against the full dynamical system in different interbank market settings: homogeneous and heterogeneous networks generated from state-of-the-art reconstruction methods as well as networks derived from empirical e-MID data. Our results indicate that, for proper choices of the bank default probability, reduction methods can provide reliable estimates of systemic risk in the market, with the spectral reduction better handling heterogeneous networks. Finally, we provide new insights on the nature and working principles of dimensional reduction methods.
