We consider a variation on the Barab\'asi-Albert random graph process with fixed parameters $m\in \mathbb{N}$ and $1/2 < p < 1$. With probability $p$ a vertex is added along with $m$ edges, randomly chosen proportional to vertex degrees.…

Preferential attachment is a popular model of growing networks. We consider a generalized model with random node removal, and a combination of preferential and random attachment. Using a high-degree expansion of the master equation, we…

In recent decades, it has been emphasized that the evolving structure of networks may be shaped by interaction principles that yield sparse graphs with a vertex degree distribution exhibiting an algebraic tail, and other structural traits…

Motivated by the complexity of network data, we propose a directed hybrid random network that mixes preferential attachment (PA) rules with uniform attachment (UA) rules. When a new edge is created, with probability $p\in [0,1]$, it follows…

In search of many social and economical systems, it is found that node strength distribution as well as degree distribution demonstrate the behavior of power-law with droop-head and heavy-tail. We present a new model for the growth of…

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…

We study a random graph $G_n$, which combines aspects of geometric random graphs and preferential attachment. The resulting random graphs have power-law degree sequences with finite mean and possibly infinite variance. In particular, the…

Preferential attachment is widely used to model power-law behavior of degree distributions in both directed and undirected networks. Practical analyses on the tail exponent of the power-law degree distribution use the Hill estimator as one…

Motivated by the empirical observation of power-law distributions in the credits (e.g., ``likes'') of viral posts in social media, we introduce a high-dimensional tail index regression model and propose methods for estimation and inference…

We consider a general preferential attachment model, where the probability that a newly arriving vertex connects to an older vertex is proportional to a sublinear function of the indegree of the older vertex at that time. It is well known…
