Tuning degree distributions of scale - free networks
We present an algorithm that generates networks in which the skewness of the degree distribution is tuneable by modifying the preferential attachment step of the Barabási-Albert construction algorithm. Skewness is linearly correlated with the maximal degree of the network and, therefore, adequately represents the influence of superspreaders or hubs. By combining our algorithm with work of Holme...
متن کاملEmergence of Scale Free Networks from Ideal Free Distributions
This paper presents a class of network optimization processes that account for the emergence of scalefree network structures. We introduce a mathematical framework that captures the connectivity and growth dynamics of a network with an arbitrary initial topology. We show how selection via differential node fitness affects the proportion of connections a node makes to other nodes, and how a heav...
متن کاملTuning clustering in random networks with arbitrary degree distributions.
We present a generator of random networks where both the degree-dependent clustering coefficient and the degree distribution are tunable. Following the same philosophy as in the configuration model, the degree distribution and the clustering coefficient for each class of nodes of degree k are fixed ad hoc and a priori. The algorithm generates corresponding topologies by applying first a closure...
متن کاملDegree landscapes in scale-free networks.
We generalize the degree-organizational view of real-world networks with broad degree distributions in a landscape analog with mountains (high-degree nodes) and valleys (low-degree nodes). For example, correlated degrees between adjacent nodes correspond to smooth landscapes (social networks), hierarchical networks to one-mountain landscapes (the Internet), and degree-disassortative networks wi...
متن کاملDegree Correlations in Directed Scale-Free Networks
Scale-free networks, in which the distribution of the degrees obeys a power-law, are ubiquitous in the study of complex systems. One basic network property that relates to the structure of the links found is the degree assortativity, which is a measure of the correlation between the degrees of the nodes at the end of the links. Degree correlations are known to affect both the structure of a net...
