A Graph Theoretic Approach to Analyze the Developing Metaverse
<|reference_start|>A Graph Theoretic Approach to Analyze the Developing Metaverse: Despite staggering growth over the past couple of decades, the concept of the metaverse is still in its early stages. Eventually, it is expected to become a common medium connecting every individual. Considering the complexity of this plausible scenario at hand, there's a need to define an advanced metaverse -- a metaverse in which, at every point in space and time, two distinct paradigms exist: that of the user in the physical world and that of its real-time digital replica in the virtual one, that can engage seamlessly with each other. The developing metaverse can be thus defined as the transitional period from the current state to, possibly, the advanced metaverse. This paper seeks to model, from a graphical standpoint, some of the structures in the current metaverse and ones that might be key to the developing and advanced metaverses under one umbrella, unlike existing approaches that treat different aspects of the metaverse in isolation. This integration allows for the accurate representation of cross-domain interactions, leading to optimized resource allocation, enhanced user engagement, and improved content distribution. This work demonstrates the usefulness of such an approach in capturing these correlations, providing a powerful tool for the analysis and future development of the metaverse.<|reference_end|>
