General Method to Build Deterministic Small-World Networks Based on Cayley Graph

Zhen Zhang, Wenjun Xiao, Xiaoming Wang · 2009

Many real-life networks, such as the WWW, biological realms, and social networks are small-world networks. Most previous researches on small-world networks have been based on probabilistic methods. In this paper, we present a general method by using Cayley graph to build deterministic small-world networks. We also analyze the cluster topology of the Cayley graph with small world properties by constructing its left Coset graph. This method has great value in constructing interconnection networks model and analyzing many other real network models.
