Mean-field theory for clustering coefficients in Barabási-Albert networks.
We applied a mean-field approach to study clustering coefficients in Barabási-Albert (BA) networks. We found that the local clustering in BA networks depends on the node degree. Analytic results have been compared to extensive numerical simulations finding a very good agreement for nodes with low degrees. Clustering coefficient of a whole network calculated from our approach perfectly fits numerical data.
