چکیده

Using a model of wealth distribution where traders are characterized by quenched random saving propensities and trade among themselves by bipartite transactions, we mimic the enhanced rates of trading of the rich by introducing the preferential selection rule using a pair of continuously tunable parameters. The bipartite trading defines a growing trade network of traders linked by their mutual trade relationships. With the preferential selection rule this network appears to be highly heterogeneous characterized by the scale-free nodal degree and the link weight distributions and presents signatures of nontrivial strength-degree correlations. With detailed numerical simulations and using finite-size scaling analysis we present evidence that the associated critical exponents are continuous functions of the tuning parameters. However the wealth distribution has been observed to follow the well-known Pareto law robustly for all positive values of the tuning parameters.

A Weighted Bipartite Network Based on the Strength Preferential Attachment 1

A model for the weighted bipartite network is proposed and the growth mechanism is based on the strength preferential attachment. By the rate equation approach, the strength distribution of the bottom nodes is provided and it has a shifted power-law tail, i.e., P (s) ∝ (s + θ)−γ , for large s. The expressions of the parameters θ and γ are also given.

Price Variation in a Bipartite Exchange Network

We analyze the variation of prices in a model of an exchange market introduced by Kakade et al. [11], in which buyers and sellers are represented by vertices of a bipartite graph and trade is allowed only between neighbors. In this model the graph is generated probabilistically, and each buyer is connected via preferential attachment to v sellers. We show that even though the tail of the degree...

Power-law node degree distribution in online affiliation networks

The purpose of this article is to present a preferential attachment model adjusted to generation of bipartite graphs. The original model is able to produce unipartite graphs with node degree distribution following power law relation. The motivation for extending classic model is the fact that multi-partite graph topologies are becoming more and more popular in social networks. This phenomenon r...
