Degree distribution, or equivalently called degree sequence, has been commonly used to be one of most significant measures for studying a large number of complex networks with which some well-known results have been obtained. By contrast,…

We propose a consistent approach to the statistics of the shortest paths in random graphs with a given degree distribution. This approach goes further than a usual tree ansatz and rigorously accounts for loops in a network. We calculate the…

We introduce a minimalistic model based on dynamic node deletion and node duplication with heterodimerisation. The model is intended to capture the essential features of the evolution of protein interaction networks. We derive an exact…

We present two complementary analytical approaches for calculating the distribution of shortest path lengths in Erdos-R\'enyi networks, based on recursion equations for the shells around a reference node and for the paths originating from…

The average nearest neighbor degree (ANND) of a node of degree $k$ is widely used to measure dependencies between degrees of neighbor nodes in a network. We formally analyze ANND in undirected random graphs when the graph size tends to…

In this paper, we study the online nearest neighbor random tree in dimension $d\in \mathbb N$ (called $d$-NN tree for short) defined as follows. We fix the torus $\mathbb T^d_n$ of dimension $d$ and area $n$ and equip it with the metric…

In this paper we study a random graph with $N$ nodes, where node $j$ has degree $D_j$ and $\{D_j\}_{j=1}^N$ are i.i.d. with $\prob(D_j\leq x)=F(x)$. We assume that $1-F(x)\leq c x^{-\tau+1}$ for some $\tau>3$ and some constant $c>0$. This…

Evolutionary game theory is employed to study topological conditions of scale-free networks for the evolution of cooperation. We show that Apollonian Networks (ANs) are perfect scale-free networks, on which cooperation can spread to all…

Unlike the well-studied models of growing networks, where the dominant dynamics consist of insertions of new nodes and connections, and rewiring of existing links, we study {\em ad hoc} networks, where one also has to contend with rapid and…

Scale-free networks with moderate edge dependence experience a phase transition between ultrasmall and small world behaviour when the power law exponent passes the critical value of three. Moreover, there are laws of large numbers for the…

We study the distribution of diameters d of Erd\"os-R\'enyi random graphs with average connectivity c. The diameter d is the maximum among all shortest distances between pairs of nodes in a graph and an important quantity for all dynamic…

Explicit determination of the mean first-passage time (MFPT) for trapping problem on complex media is a theoretical challenge. In this paper, we study random walks on the Apollonian network with a trap fixed at a given hub node (i.e. node…

The distribution of shortest path lengths (DSPL) of random networks provides useful information on their large scale structure. In the special case of random regular graphs (RRGs), which consist of $N$ nodes of degree $c \ge 3$, the DSPL,…

In this paper we introduce a model of spatial network growth in which nodes are placed at randomly selected locations on a unit square in $\mathbb{R}^2$, forming new connections to old nodes subject to the constraint that edges do not…

Experimentally observed complex networks are often scale-free, small-world and have unexpectedly large number of small cycles. Apollonian network is one notable example of a model network respecting simultaneously having all three of these…

Let $d$ be a fixed large integer. For any $n$ larger than $d$, let $A_n$ be the adjacency matrix of the random directed $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices, with the uniform distribution. We show that $A_n$ has rank at least $n-1$ with…

We find that scale-free random networks are excellently modeled by a deterministic graph. This graph has a discrete degree distribution (degree is the number of connections of a vertex) which is characterized by a power-law with exponent…

Let $r$ and $d$ be positive integers with $r<d$. Consider a random $d$-ary tree constructed as follows. Start with a single vertex, and in each time-step choose a uniformly random leaf and give it $d$ newly created offspring. Let ${\mathcal…
