Classical random graphs
Classical random graphs
This chapter gives insight into the simplest and most studied random networks: the classical random graphs. The Erdös–Rényi and Gilbert models are described, and some of their properties and characteristics are considered. These characteristics include a Poisson degree distribution, the number of loops and clustering, and average shortest-path length. The statistics of connected components in these random networks and the birth of a giant connected component, are considered.
Keywords: Erdös–Rényi model, giant connected component, Poisson degree distribution
