Abstract: The Sierpinski Pentagon is used to construct evolving networks, whose nodes are all solid regular pentagons in the construction of the Sierpinski Pentagon up to the stage t and any two nodes are neighbors if and only if the intersection of corresponding pentagons is non-empty and non-singleton. We show that such networks have the small-world and scale-free effects, but are not fractal scaling.
