Evolution of Networks
by S.N. Dorogovtsev, J.F.F. Mendes
Publisher: arXiv 2001
Number of pages: 67
Description:
We review the recent fast progress in statistical physics of evolving networks. Interest has focused mainly on the structural properties of random complex networks in communications, biology, social sciences and economics. A number of giant artificial networks of such a kind came into existence recently. This opens a wide field for the study of their topology, evolution, and complex processes occurring in them.
