This document explores the fundamentals of large sparse graphs, focusing on their structure and applications within various domains, including urban networks, social interactions, and biological systems. It emphasizes the significance of graph models, particularly in understanding complex relationships, such as flights between cities and connections between individuals based on various factors. The analysis delves into characteristics like small-world phenomena, power-law degree distributions, and the historical context of graph theory. This comprehensive overview aids in grasping the complexities of massive, dynamic graphs.

What does a massive graph look like? sparse clustered small diameter prohibitively large dynamically changing incomplete information Hard to describe ! Harder to analyze !!
A crucial observation Discovered by several groups independently. • Barabási, Albert and Jeung, 1999. • Broder, Kleinberg, Kumar, Raghavan, Rajagopalan aaand Tomkins, 1999. • M Faloutsos, P. Faloutsos and C. Faloutsos, 1999. • Abello, Buchsbaum, Reeds and Westbrook, 1999. • Aiello, Chung and Lu, 1999. Massive graphs satisfy the power law.
Massive graphs satisfy the power law. Power decay degree distribution. The degree sequences satisfy thepower law: The number of vertices of degree j is proportional to j- where is some constant 2.
A random graph model for a power law graphs Two parameters: and P(,) : a random power law graph. P(,) assigns uniform probability to all graphs satisfying: log y - log x where y = the number of vertices with degree x.
The history of power law • Zipf’s law, 1949. (The nth most frequent word occurs at rate 1/n) • Yule’s law, 1942. • Lotka’s law, 1926. (distribution of authors in chemical abstracts) • Pareto, 1897 (Wealth distribution follows a power law.) (City population follows a power law.) 1907-1916 Natural language Bibliometrics Social sciences Nature
Examples of power law • Inter • Internet graphs. • Call graphs. • Collaboration graphs. • Acquaintance graphs. • Language usage
