The following random graph model was introduced for the evolution of protein-protein interaction networks: Let $\mathcal G = (G_n)_{n=n_0, n_0+1,...}$ be a sequence of random graphs, where $G_n = (V_n, E_n)$ is a graph with $|V_n|=n$…
We examine the global organization of growing networks in which a new vertex is attached to already existing ones with a probability depending on their age. We find that the network is infinite- or finite-dimensional depending on whether…
We study the time-averaged flow in a model of particles that randomly hop on a finite directed graph. In the limit as the number of particles and the time window go to infinity but the graph remains finite, the large-deviation rate…
In the past two decades, significant advances have been made in understanding the structural and functional properties of biological networks, via graph-theoretic analysis. In general, most graph-theoretic studies are conducted in the…
The organizational development of growing random networks is investigated. These growing networks are built by adding nodes successively and linking each to an earlier node of degree k with attachment probability A_k. When A_k grows slower…
We introduce a simple one-parameter network growth algorithm which is able to reproduce a wide variety of realistic network structures but without having to invoke any global information about node degrees such as preferential-attachment…
We study the random planar graph process introduced by Gerke, Schlatter, Steger, and Taraz [The random planar graph process, Random Structures Algorithms 32 (2008), no. 2, 236--261; MR2387559]: Begin with an empty graph on $n$ vertices,…
Several interesting approaches have been reported in the literature on complex networks, random walks, and hierarchy of graphs. While many of these works perform random walks on stable, fixed networks, in the present work we address the…
We propose and investigate a unifying class of sparse random graph models, based on a hidden coloring of edge-vertex incidences, extending an existing approach, Random graphs with a given degree distribution, in a way that admits a…
Order the vertices of a directed random graph \math{v_1,...,v_n}; edge \math{(v_i,v_j)} for \math{i<j} exists independently with probability \math{p}. This random graph model is related to certain spreading processes on networks. We…
Paper proposes a model of large networks based on a random preferential attachment graph with addition of complete subgraphs (cliques). The proposed model refers to models of random graphs following the nonlinear preferential attachment…
One of the most influential recent results in network analysis is that many natural networks exhibit a power-law or log-normal degree distribution. This has inspired numerous generative models that match this property. However, more recent…
Leaves, i.e., vertices of degree one, can play a significant role in graph structure, especially in sparsely connected settings in which leaves often constitute the largest fraction of vertices. We consider a leaf-based counterpart of the…
A random graph order is a partial order obtained from a random graph on $[n]$ by taking the transitive closure of the adjacency relation. The dimension of the random graph orders from random bipartite graphs $B(n,n,p)$ and from $G(n,p)$…
We study the height of a spanning tree $T$ of a graph $G$ obtained by starting with a single vertex of $G$ and repeatedly selecting, uniformly at random, an edge of $G$ with exactly one endpoint in $T$ and adding this edge to $T$.
As suggested by Itai Benjamini, we introduced a variant of the Erd\"os- R\'enyi random graph process with a forbidden degree $k$, in which every edge adjacent to a vertex $v$ is removed when the degree of $v$ reaches $k$ (but the removed…
A bridge in a graph is an edge whose removal disconnects the graph and increases the number of connected components. We calculate the fraction of bridges in a wide range of real-world networks and their randomized counterparts. We find that…
If we add links to a network at random, a critical threshold can be crossed where a giant connected component forms. Conversely, if links or nodes are removed at random, the giant component shrinks and eventually breaks. In this paper, we…
We define a growing model of random graphs. Given a sequence of nonnegative integers $\{d_n\}_{n=0}^\infty$ with the property that $d_i\leq i$, we construct a random graph on countably infinitely many vertices $v_0,v_1\ldots$ by the…
Preferential attachment graphs are random graphs designed to mimic properties of typical real world networks. They are constructed by a random process that iteratively adds vertices and attaches them preferentially to vertices that already…
