PageRank is a graph centrality metric that gives the importance of each node in a given graph. The PageRank algorithm provides important insights to understand the behavior of nodes through the connections they form with other nodes. It is…
We consider an edge-weighted uniform random graph with a given degree sequence (Repeated Configuration Model) which is a useful approximation for many real-world networks. It has been observed that the vertices which are separated from the…
We prove that for any fixed $k$, the probability that a random vertex of a random increasing plane tree is of rank $k$, that is, the probability that a random vertex is at distance $k$ from the leaves, converges to a constant $c_k$ as the…
Node influence metrics have been applied to many applications, including ranking web pages on internet, or locations on spatial networks. PageRank is a popular and effective algorithm for estimating node influence. However, conventional…
We study random unrooted plane trees with $n$ vertices sampled according to the weights corresponding to the vertex-degrees. Our main result shows that if the generating series of the weights has positive radius of convergence, then this…
We compare two link analysis ranking methods of web pages in a site. The first, called Site Rank, is an adaptation of PageRank to the granularity of a web site and the second, called Popularity Rank, is based on the frequencies of user…
We propose a new algorithm, FAST-PPR, for estimating personalized PageRank: given start node $s$ and target node $t$ in a directed graph, and given a threshold $\delta$, FAST-PPR estimates the Personalized PageRank $\pi_s(t)$ from $s$ to…
PageRank (PR) is an algorithm originally developed by Google to evaluate the importance of web pages. Considering how deeply rooted Google's PR algorithm is to gathering relevant information or to the success of modern businesses, the…
We prove that finding a rooted subtree with at least $k$ leaves in a digraph is a fixed parameter tractable problem. A similar result holds for finding rooted spanning trees with many leaves in digraphs from a wide family $\cal L$ that…
In a former paper we simplified the proof of a theorem on personalized random walk that is fundamental to graph nodes clustering and generalized it to bipartite graphs for a specific case where the proobability of random jump was…
The bipartite graph is a ubiquitous data structure that can model the relationship between two entity types: for instance, users and items, queries and webpages. In this paper, we study the problem of ranking vertices of a bipartite graph,…
We study a model of random $\mathcal{R}$-enriched trees that is based on weights on the $\mathcal{R}$-structures and allows for a unified treatment of a large family of random discrete structures. We establish distributional limits…
We generate new mathematical tools with which to quantify the macroscopic topological structure of large directed networks. This is achieved via a statistical mechanical analysis of constrained maximum entropy ensembles of directed random…
Identifying hierarchies and rankings of nodes in directed graphs is fundamental in many applications such as social network analysis, biology, economics, and finance. A recently proposed method identifies the hierarchy by finding the…
PageRank is a widespread model for analysing the relative relevance of nodes within large graphs arising in several applications. In the current paper, we present a cost-effective Hessenberg-type method built upon the Hessenberg process for…
Motivated by a recently introduced network growth mechanism that rely on the ranking of node prestige measures [S. Fortunato \emph{et al}., Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{96}, 218701 (2006)], a rank-based model for weighted network evolution is…
Suppose each site independently and randomly chooses some sites around it, and it is weakly (strongly) connected with them (if there choose each other). What is the probability that the weak (strong) connected cluster is infinite? We…
We investigate the rank of the adjacency matrix of large diluted random graphs: for a sequence of graphs $(G_n)_{n\geq0}$ converging locally to a Galton--Watson tree $T$ (GWT), we provide an explicit formula for the asymptotic multiplicity…
