Many real-world networks display a natural bipartite structure. Investigating it based on the original structure is helpful to get deep understanding about the networks. In this paper, some real-world bipartite networks are collected and…

Sampling technique has become one of the recent research focuses in the graph-related fields. Most of the existing graph sampling algorithms tend to sample the high degree or low degree nodes in the complex networks because of the…

In the context of growing networks, we introduce a simple dynamical model that unifies the generic features of real networks: scale-free distribution of degree and the small world effect. While the average shortest path length increases…

Many complex systems, such as communication networks, display a surprising degree of robustness: while key components regularly malfunction, local failures rarely lead to the loss of the global information-carrying ability of the network.…

The probability distribution of number of ties of an individual in a social network follows a scale-free power-law. However, how this distribution arises has not been conclusively demonstrated in direct analyses of people's actions in…

In this paper we study a model of synchronization process on scale free networks with degree-degree correlations. This model was already studied on this kind of networks without correlations by Pastore y Piontti {\it et al.}, Phys. Rev. E…

We use the configuration model to generate networks having a degree distribution that follows a $q$-exponential, $P_q(k)=(2-q)\lambda[1-(1-q)\lambda k]^{1/(q-1)}$, for arbitrary values of the parameters $q$ and $\lambda$. We study the…

We investigate the statistics of the most connected nodes in scale-free networks. For a scale-free network model with homogeneous nodes, we show by means of extensive simulations that the exponential truncation--due to the finite size of…

The degree-degree correlation is important in understanding the structural organization of a network and the dynamics upon a network. Such correlation is usually measured by the assortativity coefficient $r$, with natural bounds $r \in…

We study the average nearest neighbor degree $a(k)$ of vertices with degree $k$. In many real-world networks with power-law degree distribution $a(k)$ falls off in $k$, a property ascribed to the constraint that any two vertices are…

We study a recently introduced class of scale-free networks showing a high clustering coefficient and non-trivial connectivity correlations. We find that the connectivity probability distribution strongly depends on the fine details of the…

We study the percolation phase transition in hierarchical scale-free nets. Depending on the method of construction, the nets can be fractal or small-world (the diameter grows either algebraically or logarithmically with the net size),…

Network embedding aims to learn the low-dimensional representations of vertexes in a network, while structure and inherent properties of the network is preserved. Existing network embedding works primarily focus on preserving the…

Extending previous results in the literature, random colored substitution networks and degree dimension are defined in this paper. The scale-freeness of these networks is proved by introducing a new definition for degree dimension that is…

For scale-free networks with degrees following a power law with an exponent $\tau\in(2,3)$, the structures of motifs (small subgraphs) are not yet well understood. We introduce a method designed to identify the dominant structure of any…

In this paper we show how The Free Energy Principle (FEP) can provide an explanation for why real-world networks deviate from scale-free behaviour, and how these characteristic deviations can emerge from constraints on information…

We have analysed some structural properties of scale-free networks with the same degree distribution. Departing from a degree distribution obtained from the Barab\'asi-Albert (BA) algorithm, networks were generated using four additional…

Correlations may affect propagation processes on complex networks. To analyze their effect, it is useful to build ensembles of networks constrained to have a given value of a structural measure, such as the degree-degree correlation $r$,…
