In this paper we study weighted distances in scale-free spatial network models: hyperbolic random graphs (HRG), geometric inhomogeneous random graphs (GIRG) and scale-free percolation (SFP). In HRGs, $n=\Theta(\mathrm{e}^{R/2})$ vertices…

The structure of a network is an unlabeled graph, yet graphs in most models of complex networks are labeled by meaningless random integers. Is the associated labeling noise always negligible, or can it overpower the network-structural…
