In this paper, we present a simple model of scale-free networks that incorporates both preferential & random attachment and anti-preferential & random deletion at each time step. We derive the degree distribution analytically and show that…
We consider a class of simple, non-trivial models of evolving weighted scale-free networks. The network evolution in these models is determined by attachment of new vertices to ends of preferentially chosen weighted edges. Resulting…
We investigate the statistics of the most connected nodes in scale-free networks. For a scale-free network model with homogeneous nodes, we show by means of extensive simulations that the exponential truncation--due to the finite size of…
Scale-free percolation is a stochastic model for complex networks. In this spatial random graph model, vertices $x,y\in\mathbb{Z}^d$ are linked by an edge with probability depending on i.i.d.\ vertex weights and the Euclidean distance…
Most real-world networks are weighted graphs with the weight of the edges reflecting the relative importance of the connections. In this work, we study non degree dependent correlations between edge weights, generalizing thus the…
Scale invariance profoundly influences the dynamics and structure of complex systems, spanning from critical phenomena to network architecture. Here, we propose a precise definition of scale-invariant networks by leveraging the concept of a…
In this paper, we analyze the behavior of the global clustering coefficient in scale free graphs. We are especially interested in the case of degree distribution with an infinite variance, since such degree distribution is usually observed…
It is commonly believed that scale-free networks are robust to massive numbers of random node deletions. For example, Cohen et al. study scale-free networks including some which approximate the measured degree distribution of the Internet.…
We discuss several limiting degree distributions for a class of random threshold graphs in the many node regime. This analysis is carried out under a weak assumption on the distribution of the underlying fitness variable. This assumption,…
We consider a variant of so called power-law random graph. A sequence of expected degrees corresponds to a power-law degree distribution with finite mean and infinite variance. In previous works the asymptotic picture with number of nodes…
The concept of scale-free networks has been widely applied across natural and physical sciences. Many claims are made about the properties of these networks, even though the concept of scale-free is often vaguely defined. We present tools…
We analytically explore the scaling properties of a general class of nested subgraphs in complex networks, which includes the $K$-core and the $K$-scaffold, among others. We name such class of subgraphs $K$-nested subgraphs due to the fact…
Many real-world networks exhibit scale-free feature, have a small diameter and a high clustering tendency. We have studied the properties of a growing network, which has all these features, in which an incoming node is connected to its…
Many biological networks have been labelled scale-free as their degree distribution can be approximately described by a powerlaw distribution. While the degree distribution does not summarize all aspects of a network it has often been…
We investigate a growing network model that combines preferential and uniform attachment with two distinct mechanisms of edge deletion. In addition to the usual uniform probability edge deletion, we introduce a novel node-based rule in…
We consider the self organizing process of merging and regeneration of vertices in complex networks and demonstrate that a scale-free degree distribution emerges in a steady state of such a dynamics. The merging of neighbor vertices in a…
Unlike the well-studied models of growing networks, where the dominant dynamics consist of insertions of new nodes and connections, and rewiring of existing links, we study {\em ad hoc} networks, where one also has to contend with rapid and…
We introduce a deterministic model for scale-free networks, whose degree distribution follows a power-law with the exponent $\gamma$. At each time step, each vertex generates its offsprings, whose number is proportional to the degree of…
An independent dominating set of a graph, also known as a maximal independent set, is a set $S$ of pairwise non-adjacent vertices such that every vertex not in $S$ is adjacent to some vertex in $S$. We prove that for $\Delta=4$ or…
Many realistic networks are scale-free, with small characteristic path lengths, high clustering, and power law in their degree distribution. They can be obtained by dynamical networks in which a preferential attachment process takes place.…
