A group of friends is organizing a secret message run using an oriented and unweighted graph. Each number represents a person, and each area indicates so that the message can be reviewed directly.


The graph is shown below:



The message starts at friend 1. Considering the execution of the Breadth-First Search (BFS) algorithm starting at 1, and assuming that the adjacency lists are sorted in ascending order, which of the options below correctly shows the order of visitation of the nodes?


A. 1 – 2 – 3 – 4 – 5 – 6
B. 1 – 3 – 2 – 5 – 4 – 6
C. 1 – 2 – 3 – 5 – 4 – 6
D. 1 – 3 – 5 – 2 – 4 – 6
E. None of the above

Consider a simple scale-free network generated through a configuration model with degree exponent  γ = 2.4, minimum degree   kₘᵢₙ = 1, and N = 10⁴ nós. Suppose that the maximum degree is limited by the structural cutoff kₛ ~ N¹ᐟ², and that the empirical degree correlation function follows kₙₙ(k) ~ kᵘ. Based on this scenario, select the correct statement : A) The exponent μ < 0 arises solely from dynamic preferential attachment, since the configuration model preserves assortativity by construction. B) Even though the configuration model is uncorrelated in principle, finite-size effects and the structural cutoff impose an effective dissortativity, resulting in μ < 0. C) Increasing N while maintaining the same γ leads to stronger assortativity, because kₛ grows sublinearly with N. D) Networks with γ < 3 cannot exhibit dissortative mixing, since their hubs dominate the connectivity pattern, forcing μ > 0. E) None of the above. Original idea by: Giancarlo M...

Question Consider a network with \( L = 200 \) total edges, composed of multiple communities. Two specific communities, A and B, have total degrees \( k_A = 18 \) and \( k_B = 16 \), with only 2 edges connecting them (\( L_{AB} = 2 \)). Knowing that modularity tends to merge communities when \[ \frac{k_A \cdot k_B}{2L} which of the following statements about detecting these communities is CORRECT? A. Communities A and B will be detected separately because \(\Delta M_{AB} B. The modularity algorithm will inevitably merge A and B due to the resolution limit C. The merger depends exclusively on the number of internal edges in each community D. Such small communities will always have negative modularity E.
