Future activity \( \widehat{A} \) of a community as a function of the fraction of actors in the nucleus N. Members of the nucleus are defined to have a local clustering coefficient of 1 and are identified on the network, per each time slice. Future activity is the total of messages posted during a 60-day time frame following the identification of nucleus members. Mean future activity per nucleus size is shown in black (standard error in red). a The calculation across all 10,122 communities. b The subset of long-lived communities (above-median lifetime). c The short lived communities (below median lifetime)
