Clustering is the propensity of nodes that share a common neighbour to be connected. It is ubiquitous in many networks but poses many modelling challenges. Clustering typically manifests itself by a higher than expected frequency of…

In this paper, we relatively extend the definition of global clustering coefficient to another clustering, which we call it relative clustering coefficient. The idea of this definition is to ignore the edges in the network that the…

Motivated by the analysis of social networks, we study a model of random networks that has both a given degree distribution and a tunable clustering coefficient. We consider two types of growth processes on these graphs: diffusion and…

The Holme-Kim random graph processes is a variant of the Barabasi-Albert scale-free graph that was designed to exhibit clustering. In this paper we show that whether the model does indeed exhibit clustering depends on how we define the…
