Abstract: Identification of central elements in networks is an ill-defined problem. Hence, a large number of centrality measures have been proposed in the literature. We present a survey of existing axioms, which characterize certain properties of centralities. We also perform a perturbation analysis of centrality measures in real and artificial networks.

Keywords: network analysis, centrality, axioms for centrality, perturbation analysis.
