Hello,

it is not a classical igraph question but so far my enquiries had not been
successful. So I hope to get some instructions here.

The literature about the distribution of the degree of complex networks is
dominated by Erdos-Renyi-networks (the degree distribution follows a
Poisson distribution) and scale free networks (can be modelled by a power
law). Of course, there is no need that the distribution of degrees (or
strength if the edges are weighted) follows one of these distributions. I
guess, this is quite often the case. What about networks, for instance,
showing a degree distribution obeying the gamma distribution? Or beta? Or
Poisson-gamma models? So far I did not find concepts touching that issue.
Could anybody recommend literature concerning that?

Thanks Hermann
