Abstract
The main aim of this paper is to introduce a mathematical frame- work to study stochastically evolving networks. More precisely, we provide a common language and suitable tools to study systematically the probability distribution of topological characteristics, which, in turn, play a key role in ap- plications, especially for biological networks. The latter is possible via suitable definition of a random network process and new results for graph isomorphism, which, under suitable generic assumptions, can be stated in terms of the graph walk matrix and computed in polynomial time.
