Maximal-entropy random walks in complex networks with limited information.
Maximization of the entropy rate is an important issue to design diffusion processes aiming at a well-mixed state. We demonstrate that it is possible to construct maximal-entropy random walks with only local information on the graph structure. In particular, we show that an almost maximal-entropy random walk is obtained when the step probabilities are proportional to a power of the degree of th...
متن کاملMean first-passage time for maximal-entropy random walks in complex networks
We perform an in-depth study for mean first-passage time (MFPT)--a primary quantity for random walks with numerous applications--of maximal-entropy random walks (MERW) performed in complex networks. For MERW in a general network, we derive an explicit expression of MFPT in terms of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the adjacency matrix associated with the network. For MERW in uncorrelated net...
متن کاملRandom walks on complex networks.
We investigate random walks on complex networks and derive an exact expression for the mean first-passage time (MFPT) between two nodes. We introduce for each node the random walk centrality C, which is the ratio between its coordination number and a characteristic relaxation time, and show that it determines essentially the MFPT. The centrality of a node determines the relative speed by which ...
متن کاملCore-biased random walks in complex networks
A simple strategy to explore a network is to use a random-walk where the walker jumps from one node to an adjacent node at random. It is known that biasing the random jump, the walker can explore every walk of the same length with equal probability, this is known as a Maximal Entropy Random Walk (MERW). To construct a MERW requires the knowledge of the largest eigenvalue Λ and corresponding eig...
متن کاملMaximal entropy random networks with given degree distribution
Using a maximum entropy principle to assign a statistical weight to any graph, we introduce a model of random graphs with arbitrary degree distribution in the framework of standard statistical mechanics. We compute the free energy and the distribution of connected components. We determine the size of the percolation cluster above the percolation threshold. The conditional degree distribution on...
