Vibrational modes and spectrum of oscillators on a scale-free network

Statistical Mechanics 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

We study vibrational modes and spectrum of a model system of atoms and springs on a scale-free network in order to understand the nature of excitations with many degrees of freedom on the scale-free network. We assume that the atoms and springs are distributed as nodes and links of a scale-free network, assigning the mass MiM_{i} and the specific oscillation frequency ωi\omega_{i} of the ii-th atom and the spring constant KijK_{ij} between the ii-th and jj-th atoms.
