Topological Properties of a 3-Regular Small World Network

الملخص EN

Complex networks have seen much interest from all research fields and have found many potential applications in a variety of areas including natural, social, biological, and engineering technology.

The deterministic models for complex networks play an indispensable role in the field of network model.

The construction of a network model in a deterministic way not only has important theoretical significance, but also has potential application value.

In this paper, we present a class of 3-regular network model with small world phenomenon.

We determine its relevant topological characteristics, such as diameter and clustering coefficient.

We also give a calculation method of number of spanning trees in the 3-regular network and derive the number and entropy of spanning trees, respectively.
