Abstract: We study two models of an age-biased graph process: the delta-version of the preferential attachment graph model (PAM) and the uniform attachment graph model (UAM), with m attachments for each of incoming vertices. We show that almost surely the scaled size of a breadth-first (descendant) tree rooted at a fixed vertex converges, for m=1, to a limit whose distribution is a mixture of two beta-distributions and a single beta-distribution respectively, and that for m>1 the limit is 1. We also analyze the likely performance of two greedy (online) algorithms, for a large matching set and a large independent set, and determine--for each model and each greedy algorithm--both a limiting fraction of vertices involved and an almost sure convergence rate.
