Bose-Einstein condensation in random directed networks

Statistical Mechanics 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

We consider the phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation in a random growing directed network. The network grows by the addition of vertices and edges. At each time step the network gains a vertex with probabilty pp and an edge with probability 1p1-p. The new vertex has a fitness (a,b)(a,b) with probability f(a,b)f(a,b). A vertex with fitness (a,b)(a,b), in-degree ii and out-degree jj gains a new incoming edge with rate a(i+1)a(i+1) and an outgoing edge with rate b(j+1)b(j+1). The Bose-Einstein condensation occurs as a function of fitness distribution f(a,b)f(a,b).
