Large-scale behavior of the partial duplication random graph (1408.0904v2)

Published 5 Aug 2014 in math.PR

Abstract: The following random graph model was introduced for the evolution of protein-protein interaction networks: Let $\mathcal G = (G_n){n=n_0, n_0+1,...}$ be a sequence of random graphs, where $G_n = (V_n, E_n)$ is a graph with $|V_n|=n$ vertices, $n=n_0,n_0+1,...$ In state $G_n = (V_n, E_n)$, a vertex $v\in V_n$ is chosen from $V_n$ uniformly at random and is partially duplicated. Upon such an event, a new vertex $v'\notin V_n$ is created and every edge ${v,w} \in E_n$ is copied with probability~$p$, i.e.\ $E{n+1}$ has an edge ${v',w}$ with probability~$p$, independently of all other edges. Within this graph, we study several aspects for large~$n$. (i) The frequency of isolated vertices converges to~1 if $p\leq p* \approx 0.567143$, the unique solution of $pep=1$. (ii) The number $C_k$ of $k$-cliques behaves like $n{kp{k-1}}$ in the sense that $n{-kp{k-1}}C_k$ converges against a non-trivial limit, if the starting graph has at least one $k$-clique. In particular, the average degree of a vertex (which equals the number of edges -- or 2-cliques -- divided by the size of the graph) converges to $0$ iff $p<0.5$ and we obtain that the transitivity ratio of the random graph is of the order $n{-2p(1-p)}$. (iii) The evolution of the degrees of the vertices in the initial graph can be described explicitly. Here, we obtain the full distribution as well as convergence results.
