We analyze the distribution of PageRank on a directed configuration model and show that as the size of the graph grows to infinity it can be closely approximated by the PageRank of the root node of an appropriately constructed tree. This…

Given an undirected graph $G=(V, E)$, the Personalized PageRank (PPR) of $t\in V$ with respect to $s\in V$, denoted $\pi(s,t)$, is the probability that an $\alpha$-discounted random walk starting at $s$ terminates at $t$. We study the time…
