Several studies on real complex networks from different fields as biology, economy, or sociology have shown that the degree of nodes (number of edges connected to each node) follows a scale-free power-law distribution like $P(k)\approx…

The existence or not of a percolation threshold on power law correlated graphs is a fundamental question for which a general criterion is lacking. In this work we investigate the problems of site and bond percolation on graphs with degree…

Models for generating simple graphs are important in the study of real-world complex networks. A well established example of such a model is the erased configuration model, where each node receives a number of half-edges that are connected…

Recently, it was found by Schneider et al. [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 108, 3838 (2011)], using simulations, that scale-free networks with "onion structure" are very robust against targeted high degree attacks. The onion structure is a…

We study connected graphs with a fixed degree sequence, in the sparse setting where the number of edges grows linearly in the number of vertices. Using the relation to the configuration model, we identify the number of such connected graphs…
