As the above discussion of scale-free and random networks illustrates, graphs come in many forms, shapes, and sizes.

These included cycles, regular lattices, random graphs of the kind pioneered by the great Erdős, random regular graphs, and scale-free networks.

Most of our blogging and presentation is at one level — trying to introduce the concept of swarming to people who have never studied it before, and have no idea about the ideas of social networking, decentralized systems, complex adaptive systems, scale-free networks, etc.

A fascinating property of such networks is that they often seem to be scale-free, as emphasized by another Hungarian, Albert-László Barabási, who is now the director of the Center for Network Science at Northeastern University.

We can also show that on many scales biological networks resemble scale-free networks.
-
It can be shown that scale-free networks will evolve through preferential attachment.

It can be shown that scale-free networks will evolve through preferential attachment.

So holographic/fractal/scale-free information representation may extend from the Planck scale to the brain, with information repeating every few orders of magnitude.
-
Scientists measuring gravitational waves emanating from the Planck scale detect signals - initially thought to be noise - repeating at different scales (e.g. like octaves) separated by several orders of magnitude (described as holographic, fractal, or scale-free dynamics).
