Abstract :
Internal feedback structure exists in non-hierarchical random network in form of cycles. Diffusion of information from a node to reach out all the rest occurs throughout penetration layers (depths). In each layer, the information credibility or accuracy may be challenged due to internal feedback loops. As the information propagates to subsequent layers, on average, the feedback density heterogeneity in random networks reaches saturation after the third penetration in random networks. The maximum penetration defines the feedback capacity of the network.
