This equation computes the degree distribution value for the number of edges, ki, of the i-th node, where 0 < β < 1.

Inputs

- number edges, ki for i-th node

K - mean number of edges incident on a vertex

β - characteristic constant of the network

Description

This model describes networks that exhibit the "small world" phenomenon, which is the theory that any person on the planet is a small number of connections away from any other person in the world.

Small world phenomena is not limited to people-related networks. Other networks exhibit the same nodal relationships described by this model.
