Greedy Forwarding in Dynamic Scale-Free Networks Embedded in Hyperbolic Metric Spaces

Abstract: Abstract-We show that complex (scale-free) network topologies naturally emerge from hyperbolic metric spaces. Hyperbolic geometry facilitates maximally efficient greedy forwarding in these networks. Greedy forwarding is topology-oblivious. Nevertheless, greedy packets find their destinations with 100% probability following almost optimal shortest paths. This remarkable efficiency sustains even in highly dynamic networks. Our findings suggest that forwarding information through complex networks, such as the Int… Show more

“…Internet topologies have been shown to follow hyperbolic geometries [6], and several approaches have been proposed in order to optimally estimate and characterize the resulting geometric space. Robert Kleinberg proposed a simple spanning tree-based mechanism to embed I nodes of any topology into a hyperbolic geometry, which leads to low stretch in scale free graphs when combined with a local greedy forwarding policy (i.e.…”
