For most networks, the connection between two nodes is the result of their mutual affinity and attachment. In this paper, we propose a mutual selection model to characterize the weighted networks. By introducing a general mechanism of…

We consider sparse random intersection graphs with the property that the clustering coefficient does not vanish as the number of nodes tends to infinity. We find explicit asymptotic expressions for the correlation coefficient of degrees of…

In this work we explore degree assortativity in complex networks, and extend its usual definition beyond that of nearest neighbours. We apply this definition to model networks, and describe a rewiring algorithm that induces assortativity.…

This paper presents an approach to the modeling of degree-degree correlation in complex networks. Thus, a simple function, \Delta(k', k), describing specific degree-to- degree correlations is considered. The function is well suited to…

The properties of certain networks are determined by hidden variables that are not explicitly measured. The conditional probability (propagator) that a vertex with a given value of the hidden variable is connected to k of other vertices…

Percolation theory can be used to describe the structural properties of complex networks using the generating function formulation. This mapping assumes that the network is locally tree-like and does not contain short-range loops between…

We investigate the degree distribution $P(k)$ and the clustering coefficient $C$ of the line graphs constructed on the Erd\"os-R\'enyi networks, the exponential and the scale-free growing networks. We show that the character of the degree…

The coexistence of sparsity and clustering (non-vanishing average fraction of triangles per node) is one of the few structural features that, irrespective of finer details, are ubiquitously observed across large real-world networks. This…

We study the problem of applying spectral clustering to cluster multi-scale data, which is data whose clusters are of various sizes and densities. Traditional spectral clustering techniques discover clusters by processing a similarity…

Usual formulations of the clustering coefficient can be shown to be insufficient in the task of describing the local topology of very simple networks. Motivated by this, we review some alternatives in order to present an extension, the…

A useful property of a network that can be used to characterize many systems is the degree distribution. However, many complex networks exhibit higher--order degree correlations that must be studied through other means, such as clustering…

A key measure that has been used extensively in analyzing complex networks is the degree of a node (the number of the node's neighbors). Because of its discrete nature, when the degree measure was used in analyzing weighted networks,…
