Distance-dependent connectivity: Yet Another Approach to the Small World Phenomenon | Matus Medo
; | Date: |
17 Mar 2005 | Journal: | Physica A, 359C, 815-826 (2005) DOI: 10.1016/j.physa.2005.06.038 | Subject: | Physics and Society | physics.soc-ph | Abstract: | We investigate a relationship network of humans located in a metric space where relationships are drawn according to a distance-dependent probability density. The obtained spatial graph allows us to calculate the average separation of people in a very simple manner. The acquired results agree with the well-known presence of the small-world phenomenon in human relationships. They indicate that this feature can be understood merely as a consequence of the probability composition. We also examine how this phenomenon evolves with the development of human society. | Source: | arXiv, physics/0503148 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
