Global degree/strength based preferential attachment is widely used as an evolution mechanism of networks. But it is hard to believe that any individual can get global information and shape the network architecture based on it. In this paper, it is found that the global preferential attachment emerges from the local interaction models, including distance-dependent preferential attachment (DDPA) evolving model of weighted networks(M. Li et al, New Journal of Physics 8 (2006) 72), acquaintance network model(J. Davidsen et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 88 (2002) 128701) and connecting nearest-neighbor(CNN) model(A. Vazquez, Phys. Rev. E 67 (2003) 056104). For DDPA model and CNN model, the attachment rate depends linearly on the degree or strength, while for acquaintance network model, the dependence follows a sublinear power law. It implies that for the evolution of social networks, local contact could be more fundamental than the presumed global preferential attachment. This is onsistent with the result observed in the evolution of empirical email networks.

All real networks are different, but many have some structural properties in common. There seems to be no consensus on what the most common properties are, but scale-free degree distributions, strong clustering, and community structure are frequently mentioned without question. Surprisingly, there exists no simple generative mechanism explaining all the three properties at once in growing networks. Here we show how latent network geometry coupled with preferential attachment of nodes to this geometry fills this gap. We call this mechanism geometric preferential attachment (GPA), and validate it against the Internet. GPA gives rise to soft communities that provide a different perspective on the community structure in networks. The connections between GPA and cosmological models, including inflation, are also discussed.

In the Yule-Simon process, selection of words follows the preferential attachment mechanism, resulting in the power-law growth in the cumulative number of individual word occurrences. This is derived using mean-field approximation, assuming a continu um limit of both the time and number of word occurrences. However, time and word occurrences are inherently discrete in the process, and it is natural to assume that the cumulative number of word occurrences has a certain fluctuation around the average behavior predicted by the mean-field approximation. We derive the exact and approximate forms of the probability distribution of such fluctuation analytically and confirm that those probability distributions are well supported by the numerical experiments.
We present a simple model of network growth and solve it by writing down the dynamic equations for its macroscopic characteristics like the degree distribution and degree correlations. This allows us to study carefully the percolation transition usin g a generating functions theory. The model considers a network with a fixed number of nodes wherein links are introduced using degree-dependent linking probabilities $p_k$. To illustrate the techniques and support our findings using Monte-Carlo simulations, we introduce the exemplary linking rule $p_k$ proportional to $k^{-alpha}$, with $alpha$ between -1 and plus infinity. This parameter may be used to interpolate between different regimes. For negative $alpha$, links are most likely attached to high-degree nodes. On the other hand, in case $alpha>0$, nodes with low degrees are connected and the model asymptotically approaches a process undergoing explosive percolation.
We introduce a two-dimensional growth model where every new site is located, at a distance $r$ from the barycenter of the pre-existing graph, according to the probability law $1/r^{2+alpha_G} (alpha_G ge 0)$, and is attached to (only) one pre-existin g site with a probability $propto k_i/r^{alpha_A}_i (alpha_A ge 0$; $k_i$ is the number of links of the $i^{th}$ site of the pre-existing graph, and $r_i$ its distance to the new site). Then we numerically determine that the probability distribution for a site to have $k$ links is asymptotically given, for all values of $alpha_G$, by $P(k) propto e_q^{-k/kappa}$, where $e_q^x equiv [1+(1-q)x]^{1/(1-q)}$ is the function naturally emerging within nonextensive statistical mechanics. The entropic index is numerically given (at least for $alpha_A$ not too large) by $q = 1+(1/3) e^{-0.526 alpha_A}$, and the characteristic number of links by $kappa simeq 0.1+0.08 alpha_A$. The $alpha_A=0$ particular case belongs to the same universality class to which the Barabasi-Albert model belongs. In addition to this, we have numerically studied the rate at which the average number of links $<k_i>$ increases with the scaled time $t/i$; asymptotically, $<k_i > propto (t/i)^beta$, the exponent being close to $beta={1/2}(1-alpha_A)$ for $0 le alpha_A le 1$, and zero otherwise. The present results reinforce the conjecture that the microscopic dynamics of nonextensive systems typically build (for instance, in Gibbs $Gamma$-space for Hamiltonian systems) a scale-free network.
We introduce a network growth model in which the preferential attachment probability includes the fitness vertex and the Euclidean distance between nodes. We grow a planar network around its barycenter. Each new site is fixed in space by obeying a power law distribution.
