On the Distributions of Subgraph Centralities in Complex Networks by Faxu Li, Liang Wei, Haixing Zhao, Feng Hu

“…In this paper, the important issue of subgraph centrality distributions is investigated through theory-guided extensive numerical simulations, for three typical complex network models, namely, the ER random-graph networks, WS small-world networks, and BA scale-free networks. It is found that these three very different types of complex networks share some common features, particularly that the subgraph centrality distributions in increasing order are all insensitive to the network connectivity characteristics, and also found that the probability distributions of subgraph centrality of the ER and of the WS models both follow the gamma distribution, and the BA scale-free networks exhibit a power-law distribution with an exponential cutoff.…”

Distance-Based Routing Strategy for Traffic Transport in Spatial Networks by Wei Huang, Xiang Pan, Xi Yang, Jianhua Zhang

“…In this paper, we propose a novel distance-based routing strategy in spatial scale-free networks, called LDistance strategy. The probability of establishing links among nodes obeys the power-law in the spatial network under study. …”

Network Entropy and Systemic Risk in Dynamic Banking Systems by Liang He, Shouwei Li

“…We investigate network entropy of dynamic banking systems, where interbank networks analyzed include random networks, small-world networks, and scale-free networks. We find that network entropy is positively correlated with the effect of systemic risk in the three kinds of interbank networks and that network entropy in the small-world network is the largest, followed by those in the random network and the scale-free network.…”

Modeling and Analysis of New Products Diffusion on Heterogeneous Networks by Shuping Li, Zhen Jin

“…For networks with the power-law degree distribution, numerical simulations confirm analytical results, and also at the same time, by numerical analysis of the influence of the network structure and persuasive advertisements on the density of adopters, we give two different products propagation strategies for two classes of nodes in scale-free networks.…”

The Bass Diffusion Model on Finite Barabasi-Albert Networks by M. L. Bertotti, G. Modanese

“…Using a heterogeneous mean-field network formulation of the Bass innovation diffusion model and recent exact results on the degree correlations of Barabasi-Albert networks, we compute the times of the diffusion peak and compare them with those on scale-free networks which have the same scale-free exponent but different assortativity properties. …”

Controllability and Optimization of Complex Networks Based on Bridges by Lifu Wang, Guotao Zhao, Zhi Kong, Yunkang Zhao

“…It is found that the removing bridges strategy is more efficient on reducing controllability than the other strategies of removing edges for ER networks and scale-free networks. In addition, we also found the controllability robustness under edge attack is related to the average degree of complex networks. …”

A Century of Topological Coevolution of Complex Infrastructure Networks in an Alpine City by Jonatan Zischg, Christopher Klinkhamer, Xianyuan Zhan, P. Suresh C. Rao, Robert Sitzenfrei

“…In 50 percent of the investigated networks, P(k) can be approximated with truncated [Pareto] power-law functions, as they are known for scale-free networks. Structural differences between the three evolving network types resulting from different functionalities and system states are reflected in the P(k) and other complex network metrics. …”
