On the motif distribution in random block-hierarchical networks

2010 
The distribution of motifs in random hierarchical topological networks defined by nonsymmetric random block-hierarchical adjacency matrices, is constructed for the first time. According to the classification of U. Alon et al. of network superfamilies (Milo et al., 2004 [11]) by their motifs distributions, our artificial directed random hierarchical networks fall into the superfamily of natural networks to which the neuron networks belong. This is the first example of a class of “handmade” topological networks with the motifs distribution as in a special class of natural networks of essential biological importance.
