The number of edges between any two vertices follows an independent Poisson distribution whose parameter is increasing in the weights of the two vertices. Choosing a suitable weight distribution leads to a power-law behaviour of the degree distribution as observed in many real-world complex networks. We study this model in the subcritical regime, i.e. in the absence of a giant component. For each component, we count all its vertices to determine the component sizes and show convergence of the corresponding point process of (rescaled) component sizes to a Poisson process. More generally, one can also count only specific vertices per component, like leaves. From this one can deduce asymptotic results on the size of the largest component or the maximal number of leaves in a single component. The results also apply to the Chung-Lu model and the generalised random graph.en1386-19992025https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Norros-Reittu model | Poisson process convergence | (extremal) Counting statistics | Order statistics | Subcritical regime | Power law | Rank-1 inhomogeneous random graphsNatural Sciences and Mathematics::519: Applied Mathematics, ProbabilitiesComputer Science, Information and General Works::003: Systems TheoryJournal Articlehttps://doi.org/10.15480/882.1499610.1007/s10687-025-00504-910.15480/882.14996Journal Article
