Evolving networks with multispecies nodes and spread in the number of initial links — •Jong-Won Kim1,2, Brian Hunt2, and Edward Ott2 — 1Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems, Dresden, Germany — 2University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland, USA
We consider models for growing networks incorportationg two effects not previosuly considered: (i) different species of nodes, with each species having different properties (such as different attachment probabilities to other node species) and (ii) when a new node is created, its number of links to old nodes is random with a given probability distribution. Our numerical simulations show good agreement with analytic solutions. As an application of our model, we investigate the movie-actor network with movies considered as nodes and actors as links.
