Abstract
We consider a preferential attachment process in which a multigraph is built one node at a time. The number of edges added at stage , emanating from the new node, is given by some prescribed function , generalising a model considered by Kleinberg and Kleinberg in 2005 where was presumed constant. We show that if is asymptotically bounded above and below by linear functions in , then with probability the infinite limit of the process will be isomorphic to the \emph{Rado multigraph}. This structure is the natural multigraph analogue of the Rado graph, which we introduce here.
