In the geo-protean (GEO-P) model for OSNs, nodes are identified with points in Euclidean space, and edges are stochastically generated by a mixture of the relative distance of nodes and a ranking function. With high probability, the GEO-P model generates graphs satisfying many observed properties of OSNs, such as power-law degree distributions, the small-world property, densification power law, and bad spectral expansion. We introduce the dimension of an OSN based on our model and examine this new parameter using actual OSN data. We discuss how the geo-protean model may eventually be used as a tool to group users with similar attributes using only the link structure of the network.","PeriodicalId":38105,"journal":{"name":"Internet Mathematics","volume":"8 1","pages":"2 - 28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15427951.2012.625246","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59946389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work we provide novel perspectives on finding (dis)similar vertices within a network and across two networks with the same number of vertices (graph matching). With respect to the former problem, we propose to optimize a geometric objective that allows us to express each vertex uniquely as a convex combination of a few extreme types of vertices. Our method has the important advantage of supporting efficiently several types of queries such as, which other vertices are most similar to this vertex? by using appropriate data structures and by mining interesting patterns in the network. With respect to the latter problem (graph matching) we propose the generalized condition number—a quantity widely used in numerical analysis— κ(LG, LH) of the Laplacian matrix representations of G, H as a measure of graph similarity, where G, H are the graphs of interest. We show that this objective has a solid theoretical basis, and, we propose a deterministic and a randomized graph alignment algorithm. We evaluate our algorithms on both synthetic and real data. We observe that our proposed methods achieve high-quality results and provide us with significant insights into the network structure.","PeriodicalId":38105,"journal":{"name":"Internet Mathematics","volume":"10 1","pages":"263 - 286"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15427951.2013.836581","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59947784","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The original motivation was that for a large but finite network graph to enjoy some of the typical properties to be expected in negatively curved Riemannian manifolds, the delta measuring the thinness of a triangle scaled by its diameter must be below a certain threshold all across the graph. Here we develop various ways of scaling the 4-point delta, and develop upper bounds for the scaled 4-point delta in various spaces. A significant theoretical advantage of the TTC over the FPC is that the latter allows for a Gromov-like characterization of Ptolemaic spaces. As a major network application, it is shown that scale-free networks tend to be scaled Gromov hyperbolic, while small-world networks are rather scaled positively curved.","PeriodicalId":38105,"journal":{"name":"Internet Mathematics","volume":"7 1","pages":"137 - 177"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15427951.2011.601233","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59946603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This model is a modification of the well-known Bollobás–Riordan model. First, we find a new asymptotic formula for the expectation of the number R(d, t) of nodes of a given degree d in a graph in this model. Such a formula is known for and d⩽t 1/100(a+1). Both restrictions are unsatisfactory from theoretical and practical points of view. We completely remove them. Then we calculate the covariances between any two quantities R(d 1, t) and R(d 2, t), and using the second-moment method we show that R(d, t) is tightly concentrated around its mean for all possible values of d and t. Furthermore, we study a more complicated statistic of the web graph: X(d 1, d 2, t) is the total number of edges between nodes whose degrees are equal to d 1 and d 2 respectively. We also find an asymptotic formula for the expectation of X(d 1, d 2, t) and prove a tight concentration result. Again, we do not impose any substantial restrictions on the values of d 1, d 2, and t.","PeriodicalId":38105,"journal":{"name":"Internet Mathematics","volume":"94 1","pages":"257 - 287"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15427951.2011.646176","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59946845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Researchers from different fields have proposed many definitions of communities, which are usually thought of as a subset of nodes whose vertices are well connected with other vertices in the set and have relatively fewer connections with vertices outside the set. In contrast to traditional research that focuses mainly on detecting and/or testing such clusters, we propose a new definition of community and a novel way to study community structure, with which we are able to investigate mathematical network models to test whether they exhibit the small-community phenomenon, i.e., whether every vertex in the network belongs to some small community. We examine various models and establish both positive and negative results: we show that in some models, the small-community phenomenon exists, while in some other models, it does not.","PeriodicalId":38105,"journal":{"name":"Internet Mathematics","volume":"7 1","pages":"106 - 81"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15427951.2011.566458","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59946510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We also explore methods to approximate the commute times and Katz scores from a node to all other nodes in the graph. Here, our approach for the commute times is based on a variation of the conjugate gradient algorithm, and it provides an estimate of all the diagonals of the inverse of a matrix.

We study a simple market in which the individuals arrive sequentially and choose one of a number of available products. Their choice of product is a stochastic function of the inherent quality of the product and its market share. Using techniques from stochastic approximation theory, we show that market shares converge to an equilibrium. We also derive the market shares at equilibrium in terms of the level of social influence and the inherent quality of the products. In a special case, in which the choice model is a multinomial logit model, we show that inequality in the market increases with social influence and that with strong enough social influence, monopoly occurs.

For various commercial and sociological purposes, an independent estimate of their sizes is important. In this work, algorithms for estimating the number of users in such networks are considered. The proposed schemes are also applicable for estimating the sizes of networks' sub-populations. The suggested algorithms interact with the social networks via their public APIs only, and rely on no other external information. Due to obvious traffic and privacy concerns, the number of such interactions is severely limited. We therefore focus on minimizing the number of API interactions needed for producing good size estimates. We adopt the abstraction of social networks as undirected graphs and use random node sampling. By counting the number of collisions or non-unique nodes in the sample, we produce a size estimate. Then, we show analytically that the estimate error vanishes with high probability for smaller number of samples than those required by prior-art algorithms. Moreover, although our algorithms are provably correct for any graph, they excel when applied to social network-like graphs. The proposed algorithms were evaluated on synthetic as well real social networks such as Facebook, IMDB, and DBLP. Our experiments corroborated the theoretical results, and demonstrated the effectiveness of the algorithms.","PeriodicalId":38105,"journal":{"name":"Internet Mathematics","volume":"10 1","pages":"335 - 359"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1145/1963405.1963489","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64123853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
