Network growth is currently explained through mechanisms that rely on node prestige measures, such as degree or fitness. In many real networks those who create and connect nodes do not know the prestige values of existing nodes, but only…
We show that not only preferential attachment but also preferential depletion leads to scale-free networks. The resulting degree distribution exponents is typically less than two (5/3) as opposed to the case of the growth models studied…
The rate equations are used to study the scale-free behavior of the weight distribution in evolving networks whose topology is determined only by degrees of preexisting vertices. An analysis of these equations shows that the degree…

We introduce a new mechanism of connectivity evolution in networks to account for the emergence of scale-free behavior. The mechanism works on a fixed set of nodes and promotes growth from a minimally connected initial topology by the…

We present a novel type of weighted scale-free network model, in which the weight grows independently of the attachment of new nodes. The evolution of this network is thus determined not only by the preferential attachment of new nodes to…
Real-life networks often encounter vertex dysfunctions, which are usually followed by recoveries after appropriate maintenances. In this paper we present our research on a model of scale-free networks whose vertices are regularly removed…
