Growing community networks with local events
arXiv:0902.0652 · doi:10.1016/j.physa.2008.12.022
Abstract
The study of community networks has attracted considerable attention recently. In this paper, we propose an evolving community network model based on local processes, the addition of new nodes intra-community and new links intra- or inter-community. Employing growth and preferential attachment mechanisms, we generate networks with a generalized power-law distribution of nodes' degrees.
