Popis: We propose a statistical model for graphs with a core-periphery structure. To do this we define a precise notion of what it means for a graph to have this structure, based on the sparsity properties of the subgraphs of core and periphery nodes. We present a class of sparse graphs with such properties, and provide methods to simulate from this class, and to perform posterior inference. We demonstrate that our model can detect core-periphery structure in simulated and real-world networks.
