We present analytical results for the effect of preferential node deletion on the structure of networks that evolve via node addition and preferential attachment. To this end, we consider a preferential-attachment-preferential-deletion…

We investigate a variety of statistical properties associated with the number of distinct degrees that exist in a typical network for various classes of networks. For a single realization of a network with N nodes that is drawn from an…

The spread of infectious disease in a human community or the proliferation of fake news on social media can be modeled as a randomly growing tree-shaped graph. The history of the random growth process is often unobserved but contains…

A probabilistic generative network model with $n$ nodes and $m$ overlapping layers is obtained as a superposition of $m$ mutually independent Bernoulli random graphs of varying size and strength. When $n$ and $m$ are large and of the same…

We consider preferential attachment random graphs which may be obtained as follows: It starts with a single node. If a new node appears, it is linked by an edge to one or more existing node(s) with a probability proportional to function of…

We study fringe subtrees of random $ m $-ary search trees and of preferential attachment trees, by putting them in the context of generalised P\'olya urns. In particular we show that for the random $ m $-ary search trees with $ m\leq 26 $…

In this paper, a random graph process ${G(t)}_{t\geq 1}$ is studied and its degree sequence is analyzed. Let $(W_t)_{t\geq 1}$ be an i.i.d. sequence. The graph process is defined so that, at each integer time $t$, a new vertex, with $W_t$…

Preferential attachment models are a common class of graph models which have been used to explain why power-law distributions appear in the degree sequences of real network data. One of the things they lack, however, is higher-order network…

A key ingredient of current models proposed to capture the topological evolution of complex networks is the hypothesis that highly connected nodes increase their connectivity faster than their less connected peers, a phenomenon called…

Many complex networks from the World-Wide-Web to biological networks are growing taking into account the heterogeneous features of the nodes. The feature of a node might be a discrete quantity such as a classification of a URL document as…

In a deterministic or random tree, a notion of ancestral diversity can be defined as follows. Sample independently $n$ groups of $k$ leaves and count the number $N_n(k)$ of distinct most recent common ancestors of each of the groups. As $n$…

In this paper we present a framework for the extension of the preferential attachment (PA) model to heterogeneous complex networks. We define a class of heterogeneous PA models, where node properties are described by fixed states in an…

In networks that grow by isotropic redirection (IR), a new node selects an initial target node uniformly at random and attaches to a randomly chosen neighbor of the target. The emerging networks exhibit leaf proliferation, in which the…

We extend the results of B. Bollobas, O. Riordan, J. Spencer, G. Tusnady, and Mori. We consider a model of random tree growth, where at each time unit a new node is added and attached to an already existing node chosen at random. The…

We study the number $X^{(n)}$ of vertices that can be reached from the last added vertex $n$ via a directed path (the descendants) in the standard preferential attachment graph. In this model, vertices are sequentially added, each born with…

We introduce a collection of complex networks generated by a combination of preferential attachment and a previously unexamined process of "splitting" nodes of degree $k$ into $k$ nodes of degree 1. Four networks are considered, each…

One of the best-known models in network science is preferential attachment. In this model, the probability of attaching to a node depends on the degree of all nodes in the population, and thus depends on global information. In many…

This paper presents an approach to the modeling of degree-degree correlation in complex networks. Thus, a simple function, \Delta(k', k), describing specific degree-to- degree correlations is considered. The function is well suited to…
