A power law degree distribution is established for a graph evolution model based on the graph class of k-trees. This k-tree-based graph process can be viewed as an idealized model that captures some characteristics of the preferential…

We discuss a model for evolutionary game dynamics in a growing, network-structured population. In our model, new players can either make connections to random preexisting players or preferentially attach to those that have been successful…

We introduce a new model of preferential attachment with fitness, and establish a time reversed duality between the model and a system of branching-coalescing particles. Using this duality, we give a clear and concise explanation for the…

Consider a generalised preferential attachment tree with attachment function $f$, that is a random tree, where at each time-step a node connects to an existing node $v$ with probability proportional to $f(\mathrm{deg}(v))$, where…

In studying network growth, the conventional approach is to devise a growth mechanism, quantify the evolution of a statistic or distribution (such as the degree distribution), and then solve the equations in the steady state (the…
