Medidas de conectividade baseadas em cortes de vértices para redes complexas
Resumo
Neste trabalho apresentamos medidas de conectividade para redes complexas. Essas medidas identificam os nodos importantes em uma rede de acordo com a conectividade dos mesmos em relação aos demais nodos. Mostramos como calcular o valor da medida que chamamos de vértice-conectividade e que denotamos por κ(v). Relacionamos o valor da vértice-conectividade com outras medidas como grau de intermediação, closeness, excentricidade, grau e medidas baseadas em cortes de arestas. Analisamos as medidas em casos extremos e em redes sintéticas aleatórias.
