Abstract
We use generating function formalism to obtain an exact formula of the betweenness centrality in finite components of random networks with arbitrary degree distributions. The formula is obtained as a function of the degree and the component size, and is confirmed by simulations for Poisson, exponential, and power-law degree distributions. We find that the betweenness centralities for the three distributions are asymptotically power laws with an exponent 1.5 and are invariant to the particular distribution parameters.
