SCALING PROPERTIES OF FIRST RETURN TIME ON WEIGHTED TRANSFRACTALS (1,3)-FLOWERS.

Complex networks are omnipresent in science and in our real life, and have been the focus of intense interest. It is vital to research the impact of their characters on the dynamic progress occurring on complex networks for weight-dependent walk. In this paper, we first consider the weight-dependent walk on one kind of transfractal (or fractal) which is named the weighted transfractal (1 , 3) -flowers. And we pay attention to the first return time (FRT). We mainly calculate the mean and variance of FRT for a prescribed hub (i.e. the most concerned nodes) in virtue of exact probability generating function and its properties. Then, we obtain the mean and the secondary moment of the first return time. Finally, using the relationship among the variance, mean and the secondary moment, we obtain the variance of FRT and the scaling properties of the mean and variance of FRT on weighted transfractals (1 , 3) -flowers.
