In this thesis we will analyze some examples of exponential random graph models: we will determine, when possible, the exact formula for the probability associated to the random graph ensemble and then we will discuss a model that exhibits phase transitions. In this latter case, first we will study the phenomenon analytically and then we will see it through numerical simulations using Metropolis-Hastings algorithm to sample from the graph ensemble.

Abstract

In this thesis we will analyze some examples of exponential random graph models: we will determine, when possible, the exact formula for the probability associated to the random graph ensemble and then we will discuss a model that exhibits phase transitions. In this latter case, first we will study the phenomenon analytically and then we will see it through numerical simulations using Metropolis-Hastings algorithm to sample from the graph ensemble.
