Routing in Poisson small-world networks
Abstract
Description
In recent work, Jon Kleinberg considered a small-world network model consisting of a d-dimensional lattice augmented with shortcuts. The probability of a shortcut being present between two points decays as a power of the distance between them. Kleinberg studied the efficiency of greedy routing depending on the value of the power. The results were extended to a continuum model by Franceschetti and Meester. In our work, we extend the result to more realistic models constructed from a Poisson point process, wherein each point is connected to all its neighbours within some fixed radius, as well as possessing random shortcuts to more distant nodes as described above.
