Real-world networks are neither regular nor random, a fact elegantly explained by mechanisms such as the Watts-Strogatz or the Barabasi-Albert models, among others. Both mechanisms naturally create shortcuts and hubs, which while enhancing…

We propose a statistical model for graphs with a core-periphery structure. To do this we define a precise notion of what it means for a graph to have this structure, based on the sparsity properties of the subgraphs of core and periphery…
