摘要
The shortest path multiplicity is an important metric of complex networks. The shortest path multiplicity of real networks is high and it correlates with their community structure. Since local network evolution induces network communities, it is possible that a high shortest path multiplicity is the natural expectation of local evolution rules. Here I demonstrate, by means of numerical simulations, that this is indeed the case.
