We study geometric random graphs defined on the points of a Poisson process in $d$-dimensional space, which additionally carry independent random marks. Edges are established at random using the marks of the endpoints and the distance between points in a flexible way. Our framework includes the soft Boolean model (where marks play the role of radii of balls centred in the vertices), a version of spatial preferential attachment (where marks play the role of birth times), and a whole range of other graph models with scale-free degree distributions and edges spanning large distances. In this versatile framework we give sharp criteria for absence of ultrasmallness of the graphs and in the ultrasmall regime establish a limit theorem for the chemical distance of two points. Other than in the mean-field scale-free network models the boundary of the ultrasmall regime depends not only on the power-law exponent of the degree distribution but also on the spatial embedding of the graph, quantified by the rate of decay of the probability of an edge connecting typical points in terms of their spatial distance.

Based on the concept and techniques of first-passage probability in Markov chain theory, this letter provides a rigorous proof for the existence of the steady-state degree distribution of the scale-free network generated by the Barabasi-Albert (BA) m odel, and mathematically re-derives the exact analytic formulas of the distribution. The approach developed here is quite general, applicable to many other scale-free types of complex networks.
We study a generalisation of the random recursive tree (RRT) model and its multigraph counterpart, the uniform directed acyclic graph (DAG). Here, vertices are equipped with a random vertex-weight representing initial inhomogeneities in the network, so that a new vertex connects to one of the old vertices with a probability that is proportional to their vertex-weight. We first identify the asymptotic degree distribution of a uniformly chosen vertex for a general vertex-weight distribution. For the maximal degree, we distinguish several classes that lead to different behaviour: For bounded vertex-weights we obtain results for the maximal degree that are similar to those observed for RRTs and DAGs. If the vertex-weights have unbounded support, then the maximal degree has to satisfy the right balance between having a high vertex-weight and being born early. For vertex-weights in the Frechet maximum domain of attraction the first order behaviour of the maximal degree is random, while for those in the Gumbel maximum domain of attraction the leading order is deterministic. Surprisingly, in the latter case, the second order is random when considering vertices in a compact window in the optimal region, while it becomes deterministic when considering all vertices.
Connections between continuous and discrete worlds tend to be elusive. One example is curvature. Even though there exist numerous nonequivalent definitions of graph curvature, none is known to converge in any limit to any traditional definition of cu rvature of a Riemannian manifold. Here we show that Ollivier curvature of random geometric graphs in any Riemannian manifold converges in the continuum limit to Ricci curvature of the underlying manifold, but only if the definition of Ollivier graph curvature is properly generalized to apply to mesoscopic graph neighborhoods. This result establishes the first rigorous link between a definition of curvature applicable to networks and a traditional definition of curvature of smooth spaces.
We consider an Erdos-Renyi random graph consisting of N vertices connected by randomly and independently drawing an edge between every pair of them with probability c/N so that at N->infinity one obtains a graph of finite mean degree c. In this regim e, we study the distribution of resistance distances between the vertices of this graph and develop an auxiliary field representation for this quantity in the spirit of statistical field theory. Using this representation, a saddle point evaluation of the resistance distance distribution is possible at N->infinity in terms of an 1/c expansion. The leading order of this expansion captures the results of numerical simulations very well down to rather small values of c; for example, it recovers the empirical distribution at c=4 or 6 with an overlap of around 90%. At large values of c, the distribution tends to a Gaussian of mean 2/c and standard deviation sqrt{2/c^3}. At small values of c, the distribution is skewed toward larger values, as captured by our saddle point analysis, and many fine features appear in addition to the main peak, including subleading peaks that can be traced back to resistance distances between vertices of specific low degrees and the rest of the graph. We develop a more refined saddle point scheme that extracts the corresponding degree-differentiated resistance distance distributions. We then use this approach to recover analytically the most apparent of the subleading peaks that originates from vertices of degree 1. Rather intuitively, this subleading peak turns out to be a copy of the main peak, shifted by one unit of resistance distance and scaled down by the probability for a vertex to have degree 1. We comment on a possible lack of smoothness in the true N->infinity distribution suggested by the numerics.
We study the critical behavior for percolation on inhomogeneous random networks on $n$ vertices, where the weights of the vertices follow a power-law distribution with exponent $tau in (2,3)$. Such networks, often referred to as scale-free networks, exhibit critical behavior when the percolation probability tends to zero at an appropriate rate, as $ntoinfty$. We identify the critical window for a host of scale-free random graph models such as the Norros-Reittu model, Chung-Lu model and generalized random graphs. Surprisingly, there exists a finite time inside the critical window, after which, we see a sudden emergence of a tiny giant component. This is a novel behavior which is in contrast with the critical behavior in other known universality classes with $tau in (3,4)$ and $tau >4$. Precisely, for edge-retention probabilities $pi_n = lambda n^{-(3-tau)/2}$, there is an explicitly computable $lambda_c>0$ such that the critical window is of the form $lambda in (0,lambda_c),$ where the largest clusters have size of order $n^{beta}$ with $beta=(tau^2-4tau+5)/[2(tau-1)]in[sqrt{2}-1, tfrac{1}{2})$ and have non-degenerate scaling limits, while in the supercritical regime $lambda > lambda_c$, a unique `tiny giant component of size $sqrt{n}$ emerges. For $lambda in (0,lambda_c),$ the scaling limit of the maximum component sizes can be described in terms of components of a one-dimensional inhomogeneous percolation model on $mathbb{Z}_+$ studied in a seminal work by Durrett and Kesten. For $lambda>lambda_c$, we prove that the sudden emergence of the tiny giant is caused by a phase transition inside a smaller core of vertices of weight $Omega(sqrt{n})$.
