A dynamic model for a random network evolving in continuous time is defined where new vertices are born and existing vertices may die. The fitness of a vertex is defined as the accumulated in-degree of the vertex and a new vertex is…

We introduce a family of one-dimensional geometric growth models, constructed iteratively by locally optimizing the tradeoffs between two competing metrics, and show that this family is equivalent to a family of preferential attachment…

We include complex connectivity structures and heterogeneity in models of multilayer networks or multilayer hypergraphs growing by preferential attachment. We consider the most generic connectivity structure, where the probability of…

The random graph model has recently been extended to a random preferential attachment graph model, in order to enable the study of general asymptotic properties in network types that are better represented by the preferential attachment…

We have constructed a fitness parameter, characterizing the intrinsic attractiveness for patents to be cited, from attributes of the associated inventions known at the time a patent is granted. This exogenously obtained fitness is shown to…

In this work we consider a growing random graph sequence where a new vertex is less likely to join to an existing vertex with high degree and more likely to join to a vertex with low degree. In contrast to the well studied…

Growing attention has been brought to the fact that many real directed networks exhibit hierarchy and directionality as measured through techniques like Trophic Analysis and non-normality. We propose a simple growing network model where the…

Motivated by widely observed examples in nature, society and software, where groups of already related nodes arrive together and attach to an existing network, we consider network growth via sequential attachment of linked node groups, or…

In the field of complex networks, hypergraph models have so far received significantly less attention than graphs. However, many real-life networks feature multiary relations (co-authorship, protein reactions) may therefore be modeled way…

We generalize the scale-free network model of Barab\`asi and Albert [Science 286, 509 (1999)] by proposing a class of stochastic models for scale-free interdependent networks in which interdependent nodes are not randomly connected but…

Preferential attachment models have been widely studied in complex networks, because they can explain the formation of many networks like social networks, citation networks, power grids, and biological networks, to name a few. Motivated by…

In this paper we provide numerical evidence of the richer behavior of the connectivity degrees in heterogeneous preferential attachment networks in comparison to their homogeneous counterparts. We analyze the degree distribution in the…

In this paper, we provide a rigorous analysis of preferential attachment with fitness, a random graph model introduced by Bianconi and Barabasi. Depending on the shape of the fitness distribution, we observe three distinct phases: a…

Complex networks in different areas exhibit degree distributions with heavy upper tail. A preferential attachment mechanism in a growth process produces a graph with this feature. We herein investigate a variant of the simple preferential…

We study a new class of preferential attachment trees with \emph{self-reinforcement}. At each time, each vertex is assigned a weight equal to the cumulative sum over past times of an affine function of its degree. A new vertex attaches…

We study a general model of recursive trees where vertices are equipped with independent weights and at each time-step a vertex is sampled with probability proportional to its fitness function (a function of its weight and degree) and…

Identifying power-law scaling in real networks - indicative of preferential attachment - has proved controversial. Critics argue that measuring the temporal evolution of a network directly is better than measuring the degree distribution…

The rate at which nodes in evolving social networks acquire links (friends, citations) shows complex temporal dynamics. Preferential attachment and link copying models, while enabling elegant analysis, only capture rich-gets-richer effects,…
