Abstract: We consider a random graph process in which, at each time step, a new vertex is added with m out-neighbours, chosen with probabilities proportional to their degree plus a strictly positive constant. We show that the expectation of the clustering coefficient of the graph process is asymptotically proportional to (log n)/n. Bollobas and Riordan have previously shown that when the constant is zero, the same expectation is asymptotically proportional to ((log n)^2)/n.
