Network growth as described by the Duplication-Divergence model proposes a simple general idea for the evolution dynamics of natural networks. In particular it is an alternative to the well known Barabasi-Albert model when applied to protein-protein interaction networks. In this work we derive a master equation for the node degree distribution of networks growing via Duplication and Divergence and we obtain an expression for the total number of links and for the degree distribution as a function of the number of nodes. Using algebra tools we investigate the degree distribution asymptotic behavior. Analytic results show that the network nodes average degree converges if the total mutation rate is greater than 0.5 and diverges otherwise. Treating original and duplicated node mutation rates as independent parameters has no effect on this result. However, difference in these parameters results in a slower rate of convergence and in different degree distributions. The more different these parameters are, the denser the tail of the distribution. We compare the solutions obtained with simulated networks. These results are in good agreement with the expected values from the derived expressions. The method developed is a robust tool to investigate other models for network growing dynamics.
In many real-world networks, the rates of node and link addition are time dependent. This observation motivates the definition of accelerating networks. There has been relatively little investigation of accelerating networks and previous efforts at a
Individual heterogeneity is a key characteristic of many real-world systems, from organisms to humans. However its role in determining the systems collective dynamics is typically not well understood. Here we study how individual heterogeneity impact
We study the robustness properties of multiplex networks consisting of multiple layers of distinct types of links, focusing on the role of correlations between degrees of a node in different layers. We use generating function formalism to address var
The master equation approach is proposed to describe the evolution of passengers in a subway system. With the transition rate constructed from simple geographical consideration, the evolution equation for the distribution of subway passengers is foun
We present a general quantum fluctuation theorem for the entropy production of an open quantum system whose evolution is described by a Lindblad master equation. Such theorem holds for both local and global master equations, thus settling the dispute
