Abstract

The “classical” random graph models, in particular G(n,p), are “homogeneous,” in the sense that the degrees (for example) tend to be concentrated around a typical value. Many graphs arising in the real world do not have this property, having, for example, power‐law degree distributions. Thus there has been a lot of recent interest in defining and studying “inhomogeneous” random graph models.
