Synchronization in power-law networks.

We consider realistic power-law graphs, for which the power-law holds only for a certain range of degrees. We show that synchronizability of such networks depends on the expected average and expected maximum degree. In particular, we find that networks with realistic power-law graphs are less synchronizable than classical random networks. Finally, we consider hybrid graphs, which consist of two parts: a global graph and a local graph. We show that hybrid networks, for which the number of global edges is proportional to the number of total edges, almost surely synchronize.
