Gaussian Wasserstein bound for instantaneous preferential-attachment triangle counts
Gaussian Wasserstein bound for instantaneous preferential-attachment triangle counts
Fix and . Let be the number of triangles in the instantaneous variant of the linear preferential attachment model, with connections specified by the instantaneous-attachment rule. Let , and write for the Wasserstein distance. Gaussian Wasserstein bound conjecture. One has
The conjecture gives a quantitative Gaussian approximation for triangle counts in the positive-offset instantaneous model. The surrounding discussion says that simulations are consistent with a Gaussian limit, while the precise limiting behavior and rate remain unproved.
