The degree distribution, referred to as the delta-sequence of a network is studied. Using the non-normalized Lorenz curve, we apply a generalized form of the classical majorization partial order. Next, we introduce a new class of small…

In their recent work "Scale-free networks are rare", Broido and Clauset address the problem of the analysis of degree distributions in networks to classify them as scale-free at different strengths of "scale-freeness." Over the last two…

Recent work on the internet, social networks, and the power grid has addressed the resilience of these networks to either random or targeted deletion of network nodes. Such deletions include, for example, the failure of internet routers or…

We generalize the degree-organizational view of real-world networks with broad degree-distributions in a landscape analogue with mountains (high-degree nodes) and valleys (low-degree nodes). For example, correlated degrees between adjacent…

The analysis of datasets taking the form of simple, undirected graphs continues to gain in importance across a variety of disciplines. Two choices of null model, the logistic-linear model and the implicit log-linear model, have come into…

Using a steady state process of node duplication and deletion we produce networks with 1/k scale-free degree distributions in the limit of vanishing connectance. This occurs even though there is no growth involved and inherent preferential…

The simplest null models for networks, used to distinguish significant features of a particular network from {\it a priori} expected features, are random ensembles with the degree sequence fixed by the specific network of interest. These…

In many networks of scientific interest we know that the link between any pair of vertices conforms to a specific probability, such as the link probability in the Barab\'asi-Albert scale-free networks. Here we demonstrate how the…

The network topology can be described by the number of nodes and the interconnections among them. The degree of a node in a network is the number of connections it has to other nodes and the degree distribution is the probability…

Most of the networks observed in real life obey power-law degree distribution. It is hypothesized that the emergence of such a degree distribution is due to preferential attachment of the nodes. Barabasi-Albert model is a generative…

Many naturally occurring networks have a power-law degree distribution as well as a non-zero degree correlation. Despite this, most studies analyzing the robustness to random node-deletion and vulnerability to targeted node-deletion have…

Although most of the real networks contain a mixture of directed and bidirectional (reciprocal) connections, the reciprocity $r$ has received little attention as a subject of theoretical understanding. We study the expected reciprocity of…

In this paper we describe the emergence of scale-free degree distributions from statistical mechanics principles. We define an energy associated to a degree sequence as the logarithm of the number of indistinguishable simple networks it is…

Most real world dynamic networks are evolved very fast with time. It is not feasible to collect the entire network at any given time to study its characteristics. This creates the need to propose local algorithms to study various properties…

This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the degree statistics in models for growing networks where new nodes enter one at a time and attach to one earlier node according to a stochastic rule. The models with uniform attachment,…

What is the underlying mechanism leading to power-law degree distributions of many natural and artificial networks is still at issue. We consider that scale-free networks emerges from self-organizing process, and such a evolving model is…

The network properties of a graph ensemble subject to the constraints imposed by the expected degree sequence are studied. It is found that the linear preferential attachment is a fundamental rule, as it keeps the maximal entropy in sparse…

We introduce a growing network model in which a new node attaches to a randomly-selected node, as well as to all ancestors of the target node. This mechanism produces a sparse, ultra-small network where the average node degree grows…

Confining an answer to the question whether and how the coherent operation of network elements is determined by the the network structure is the topic of our work. We map the structure of signal flow in directed networks by analysing the…

Many real-world networks exhibit correlations between the node degrees. For instance, in social networks nodes tend to connect to nodes of similar degree. Conversely, in biological and technological networks, high-degree nodes tend to be…
