Abstract

The Asymmetric BA model extends the Barabási-Albert scale-free network model by introducing a parameter ω. As ω varies, the model transitions through different network structures: an extended lattice at ω= -1, a random graph at ω= 0, and the original scale-free network at ω= 1. We derive the exact degree distribution for ω= -r/(r+k), where k ∈ \0,1,⋯\, and develop a perturbative expansion around these values of ω. Additionally, we show that for ω= -1 + ε, the clustering coefficient scales as ln t / √(ε) t and approaches zero as t → ∞, confirming the absence of small-world properties.
