Hierarchical Cutting of Complex Networks Performed by Random Walks (2403.06876v1)

Published 11 Mar 2024 in cs.SI and physics.soc-ph

Abstract: Several interesting approaches have been reported in the literature on complex networks, random walks, and hierarchy of graphs. While many of these works perform random walks on stable, fixed networks, in the present work we address the situation in which the connections traversed by each step of a uniformly random walks are progressively removed, yielding a successively less interconnected structure that may break into two components, therefore establishing a respective hierarchy. The sizes of each of these pairs of sliced networks, as well as the permanence of each connected component, are studied in the present work. Several interesting results are reported, including the tendency of geometrical networks sometimes to be broken into two components with comparable large sizes.
