We study the transition in the functional networks that characterize thehuman brains' conscious-state to an unconscious subliminal state of perceptionby using k-core percolation. We find that the most inner core (i.e., the mostconnected kernel) of the conscious-state functional network corresponds toareas which remain functionally active when the brain transitions from theconscious-state to the subliminal-state. That is, the inner core of theconscious network coincides with the subliminal-state. Mathematical modelingallows to interpret the conscious to subliminal transition as driven by k-corepercolation, through which the conscious state is lost by the inactivation ofthe peripheral k-shells of the conscious functional network. Thus, the innercore and most robust component of the conscious brain corresponds to theunconscious subliminal state. This finding imposes constraints to theoreticalmodels of consciousness, in that the location of the core of the functionalbrain network is in the unconscious part of the brain rather than in theconscious state as previously thought.
