Schelling (1969, 1971a,b, 1978) considered a simple proximity model of segregation where individual agents only care about the types of people living in their own local geographical neighborhood, the spatial structure being represented by one- or two-dimensional lattices. In this paper, we argue...

The diffusion approach of concentration mapping is used to discover communities in the directional friendship network of LiveJournal users. We show that this Internet-based social network has a power-law region in degree distribution with exponent γ=3.45. It is also a small-world network with...

It was demonstrated recently that the line graphs are clustered and assortative. These topological features are known to characterize some social networks [M.E.J. Newman, Y. Park, Why social networks are different from other types of networks, Phys. Rev. E 68 (2003) 036122]; it was argued that...
