    LARGE SCALE STRUCTURE AND DYNAMICS OF COMPLEX NETWORKS
    From Information Technology to Finance and Natural Science

    edited by Guido Caldarelli (University of Rome “La Sapienze”, Italy) & Alessandro Vespignani (Indiana University, USA)

    Table of Contents (62k)
    Preface (64k)
    Chapter 1: Preliminaries and Basic Definitions in Network Theory (282k)

    This book is the culmination of three years of research effort on a multidisciplinary project in which physicists, mathematicians, computer scientists and social scientists worked together to arrive at a unifying picture of complex networks. The contributed chapters form a reference for the various problems in data analysis visualization and modeling of complex networks.

     
    Contents:
    • Preliminaries and Basic Definitions in Network Theory
    • Models of Complex Networks
    • Correlations in Complex Networks
    • The Architecture of Complex Weighted Networks: Measurements and Models
    • Community Structure Identification
    • Visualizing Large Complex Networks
    • Modeling the Webgraph: How Far We Are
    • The Large Scale Structure of the Internet
    • Spanning Trees in Ecology
    • Social and Financial Networks
     
    Readership: Researchers in physics, mathematical biology, mathematical sociology, applied mathematics and computer science.
     
    “The wide interdisciplinary approach is emphasized by the various chapters, which start with an introduction to the basic notation and definitions, based on graph theory, followed by an overview of the main classes of models: static random networks and evolving random networks … The book also includes a detailed list of references, spanning a wide spectrum of disciplines, which underline the importance of the interdisciplinary approach in this field.”
