AbstractUsing the headers of scientific papers, we have built multilayer networks of entities involved in research namely: authors, laboratories, and institutions. We have analyzed some properties of such networks built from data extracted from the HAL archives and found that the network at each layer is a small-world network with power law distribution. In order to simulate such co-publication network, we propose a multilayer network generation model based on the formation of cliques at each layer and the affiliation of each new node to the higher layers. The clique is built from new and existing nodes selected using preferential attachment. We also show that, the degree distribution of generated layers follows a power law. From the simulations of our model, we show that the generated multilayer networks reproduce the studied properties of co-publication networks.

AbstractIn this paper we devise a generative random network model with core–periphery properties whose core nodes act as sublinear dominators, that is, if the network has n nodes, the core has size o(n) and dominates the entire network. We show that instances generated by this model exhibit power law degree distributions, and incorporates small-world phenomena. We also fit our model in a variety of real-world networks.

Power law degree distribution, the small world property, and bad spectral expansion are three of the most important properties of On-line Social Networks (OSNs). We sampled YouTube and Wikipedia to investigate OSNs. Our simulation and computational results support the conclusion that OSNs follow a power law degree distribution, have the small world property, and bad spectral expansion. We calculated the diameters and spectral gaps of OSNs samples, and compared these to graphs generated by the GEO-P model. Our simulation results support the Logarithmic Dimension Hypothesis, which conjectures that the dimension of OSNs is m = [log N]. We introduced six GEO-P type models. We ran simulations of these GEO-P-type models, and compared the simulated graphs with real OSN data. Our simulation results suggest that, except for the GEO-P (GnpDeg) model, all our models generate graphs with power law degree distributions, the small world property, and bad spectral expansion.

In this paper, we propose a self-organization mechanism for newly appeared nodes during the formation of corona graphs that define a hierarchical pattern in the resulting corona graphs and we call it self-organized corona graphs (SoCG). We show that the degree distribution of SoCG follows power-law in its tail with power-law exponent approximately 2. We also show that the diameter is less equal to 4 for SoCG defined by any seed graph and for certain seed graphs, the diameter remains constant during its formation. We derive lower bounds of clustering coefficients of SoCG defined by certain seed graphs. Thus, the proposed SoCG can be considered as a growing network generative model which is defined by using the corona graphs and a self-organization process such that the resulting graphs are scale-free small-world highly clustered growing networks. The SoCG defined by a seed graph can also be considered as a network with a desired motif which is the seed graph itself.

It is now well known that many large-sized complex networks obey a scale-free power-law vertex-degree distribution. Here, we show that when the vertex degrees of a large-sized network follow a scale-free power-law distribution with exponent  2, the number of degree-1 vertices, if nonzero, is of order N and the average degree is of order lower than log N, where N is the size of the network. Furthermore, we show that the number of degree-1 vertices is divisible by the least common multiple of , , . . ., , and l is less than log N, where l = < is the vertex-degree sequence of the network. The method we developed here relies only on a static condition, which can be easily verified, and we have verified it by a large number of real complex networks.

How to effectively locate resources is a very important factor affecting the performance of distributed system in wide area network environments. Some resource location methods have been already proposed, which utilize Small World phenomena, but have not show how to construct a Small World exactly. In this paper, on the base of Kleinberg Small World model, aimed power-law characteristics, an efficient decentralized construction approach PLSWCP(Power-law oriented Small World Construction Protocol) is proposed, which uses fairly small partial view instead of global knowledge of network. Theoretical analysis and simulations show that PLSWCP is scalable, self-adaptable, and load-balanced, improving the efficiency of resource location.
