X Abstract

In order to take the weight of connection into consideration and to find a natural measurement of weight, we have collected papers in Econophysics and constructed a network of scientific communication to integrate idea transportation among econophysicists by collaboration, citation and personal discussion. Some basic statistics such as weight per degree are discussed in \citefan. In this paper, by including the papers published recently, further statistical results for the network are reported. Clustering coefficient of weighted network is introduced and empirically studied in this network. We also compare the typical statistics on this network under different weight measurements, including random and inverse weight. The conclusion from weight-randomized network is helpful to the investigation of the geometrical role of weight.
