Comments on Six Degrees of Separation based on the le Pool and Kochen Models
Abstract
In this article we discuss six degrees of separation, which has been suggested by Milgram's famous experimentMilg,Milg2, from a theoretical point of view again. Though Milgram's experiment was partly inspired to Pool and Kochen's study Pool that was made from a theoretical point of view. At the time numerically detailed study could not be made because computers and important concepts, such as the clustering coefficient, needed for a network analysis nowadays, have not yet developed. In this article we devote deep study to the six degrees of separation based on some models proposed by Pool and Kochen by using a computer, numerically. Moreover we estimate the clustering coefficient along the method developed by us Toyota1 and extend our analysis of the subject through marrying Pool and Kochen's models to our method.
