We prove almost sure convergence of the maximum degree in an evolving graph model combining a growing number of local choices with sublinear preferential attachment. At each step in the growth of the graph, a new vertex is introduced. Then…

We introduce the notion of globally updating evolution for a class of weighted networks, in which the weight of a link is characterized by the amount of data packet transport flowing through it. By noting that the packet transport over the…

We study the random geometry of first passage percolation on the complete graph equipped with independent and identically distributed edge weights, continuing the program initiated by Bhamidi and van der Hofstad [9]. We describe our results…

Much recent research activity has been devoted to empirical study and theoretical models of complex networks (random graphs) with three qualitative features: power-law degree distribution, local clustering of edges, and small diameter. We…

This monograph resolves - in a dense class of cases - several open problems concerning geodesics in i.i.d. first-passage percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. Our primary interest is in the empirical measures of edge-weights observed along…

We study preferential attachment models where vertices enter the network with i.i.d. random numbers of edges that we call the out-degree. We identify the local limit of such models, substantially extending the work of Berger et al.(2014).…

In this paper we revisited the classical problem of max-sum equivalence of randomly weighted sums in two dimensions. In opposite to the most papers in literature, we consider that there exists some interdependence between the primary random…

We investigated two-dimensional brittle fragmentation with a flat impact experimentally, focusing on the low impact energy region near the fragmentation-critical point. We found that the universality class of fragmentation transition…

We investigate the limiting behavior of random tree growth in preferential attachment models. The tree stems from a root, and we add vertices to the system one-by-one at random, according to a rule which depends on the degree distribution…

We investigate the degree sequences of geometric preferential attachment graphs in general compact metric spaces. We show that, under certain conditions on the attractiveness function, the behaviour of the degree sequence is similar to that…

We develop a new formulation of Stein's method to obtain computable upper bounds on the total variation distance between the geometric distribution and a distribution of interest. Our framework reduces the problem to the construction of a…

We propose a geometric growth model for weighted scale-free networks, which is controlled by two tunable parameters. We derive exactly the main characteristics of the networks, which are partially determined by the parameters. Analytical…

In this article, we study linearly edge-reinforced random walk on general multi-level ladders for large initial edge weights. For infinite ladders, we show that the process can be represented as a random walk in a random environment, given…

For fitness preferential attachment random networks, we define the empirical degree and pair measure, which counts the number of vertices of a given degree and the number of edges with given fits, and the sample path empirical degree…

We consider a generalised d-dimensional model for asymptotically-scale-free geographical networks. Central to many networks of this kind, when considering their growth in time, is the attachment rule, i.e. the probability that a new node is…

Identifying the generating mechanism of a network is challenging as, more often than not, only snapshots are available, but not the full evolution. One candidate for the generating mechanism is preferential attachment which, in its simplest…
