Based on the Barabasi-Albert (BA) model, we introduce the attractiveness of node which can change with node degree. Using the mean-field theory, we obtain the analytical expression of power-law degree distribution with the exponent γ∈ (3, ∞). The new model is more homogeneous and has a lower clustering coefficient and bigger average path length than the BA model.展开更多

Previous models could hardly give out size-independent clustering with self- organized mechanism when succeeded in producing power-law degree distributions. Always ignored, some empirical statistic results display flat-head power-law behaviors. We modify our recent coevo- lutionary model to explain such phenomena with the inert property of nodes to retain small portion of unfavorable links in self-organized rewiring process. Flat-head power-law and size-independent clustering are induced as the new characteristics by this modification. In addition, a new scaling relation is found as the result of interplay between node state growth and adaptive variation of connections.展开更多

文摘In this paper, a new evolving model with tunable attractiveness is presented. Based on the Barabasi-Albert (BA) model, we introduce the attractiveness of node which can change with node degree. Using the mean-field theory, we obtain the analytical expression of power-law degree distribution with the exponent γ∈ (3, ∞).
