Clique Relaxations in Social Network Analysis: The Maximum k-Plex Problem
This paper introduces and studies the maximum k-plex problem, which arises in social network analysis and has wider applicability in several important areas employing graph-based ...

High Degree Vertices, Eigenvalues and Diameter of Random Apollonian Networks
ABSTRACT. Upon the discovery of power laws [8, 16, 30], a large body of work in complex network analysis has focused on developing generative models of graphs which mimick real-wor...

The Geometric Protean Model for On-Line Social Networks
We introduce a new geometric, rank-based model for the link structure of on-line social networks (OSNs). In the geo-protean (GEO-P) model for OSNs nodes are identified with points ...

Rank-Based Attachment Leads to Power Law Graphs
Abstract. We investigate the degree distribution resulting from graph generation models based on rank-based attachment. In rank-based attachment, all vertices are ranked according ...

Transition from Heavy to Light Tails in Retransmission Durations
— Retransmissions serve as the basic building block that communication protocols use to achieve reliable data transfer. Until recently, the number of retransmissions were thought...

PageRank of Scale-Free Growing Networks
PageRank is one of the principle criteria according to which Google ranks Web pages. PageRank can be interpreted as a frequency of Web page visits by a random surfer and thus it r...

In-Degree and PageRank: Why Do They Follow Similar Power Laws?
PageRank is a popularity measure designed by Google to rank Web pages. Experiments confirm that PageRank values obey a power law with the same exponent as In-Degree values. This ...

The Degree Distribution of Random k-Trees
A power law degree distribution is established for a graph evolution model based on the graph class of k-trees. This k-tree-based graph process can be viewed as an idealized model...

Power law discounting for n-gram language models
We present an approximation to the Bayesian hierarchical PitmanYor process language model which maintains the power law distribution over word tokens, while not requiring a comput...

The diameter of random massive graphs
Many massive graphs (such as the WWW graph and Call graphs) share certain universal characteristics which can be described by so-called the "power law". Here we determin...
