A scale-free network is a network whose degree distribution follows a power law, at least asymptotically. That is, the fraction P ( k) of nodes in the network having k connections to other nodes goes for large values of k as. where is a parameter whose value is typically in the range (wherein the second moment ( scale parameter) of is infinite ...
The distribution of the vertex degrees of a BA graph with 200000 nodes and 2 new edges per step. Plotted in log-log scale. It follows a power law with exponent -2.78. The degree distribution resulting from the BA model is scale free, in particular, it is a power law of the form ()
A scale-free network is a type of networks that is of particular interest of network science.It is characterized by its degree distribution following a power law. While the most widely known generative models for scale-free networks are stochastic, such as the Barabási–Albert model or the Fitness model can reproduce many properties of real-life networks by assuming preferential attachment ...
Formally, the degree distribution of ER graphs converges to a Poisson distribution, rather than a power law observed in many real-world, scale-free networks. [3] The Watts and Strogatz model was designed as the simplest possible model that addresses the first of the two limitations.
The hierarchical network model is part of the scale-free model family sharing their main property of having proportionally more hubs among the nodes than by random generation; however, it significantly differs from the other similar models (Barabási–Albert, Watts–Strogatz) in the distribution of the nodes' clustering coefficients: as other models would predict a constant clustering ...
In the mathematical field of graph theory, the Erdős–Rényi model refers to one of two closely related models for generating random graphs or the evolution of a random network. These models are named after Hungarian mathematicians Paul Erdős and Alfréd Rényi, who introduced one of the models in 1959. [ 1][ 2] Edgar Gilbert introduced the ...

Many real networks have two fundamental properties, scale-free property and small-world property. If the degree distribution of the network follows a power-law, the network is scale-free; if any two arbitrary nodes in a network can be connected in a very small number of steps, the network is said to be small-world.
