DESCRIPTION:In random graph models\, the degree distribution of individual 
 nodes should be contrasted with the degree distribution of the graph\, i.e
 .\, the usual fractions of nodes with given degree. A general framework is
  introduced to discuss conditions under which these two degree distributio
 ns coincide asymptotically. Somewhat surprisingly\, we show that this assu
 mption may fail to hold\, even in strongly homogeneous random networks. Th
 is counterexample can be found in the class of random threshold graphs. An
  interesting implication of this finding is that random threshold graphs c
 annot be used as a substitute for the Barab\\&#39;asi-Albert model\, a claim m
 ade in the literature.\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Armand M. Makowski \, \, Dr. Arm
