The "Configuration model" can refer to different concepts depending on the context in which it's being used. Here are a few common interpretations of the term: 1. **Physics and Network Theory**: In statistical physics and complex networks, the configuration model is a way to generate random networks with a given degree distribution. The model allows for the construction of graphs that satisfy specific connectivity requirements, particularly focusing on how many edges (connections) each node (vertex) has.
