Network Definition
A graph G(N, L) (network topology) specifies how nodes are interconnected or related to other nodes by links.

Graph Type
directed?
weighted?
types of nodes and links?
EXAMPLE: Trees, Rings, Complete Graph

Basic Concepts
of an undirected/unweighted network

for simple graphs that are unweighted, undirected and without self-loops and no multiple links

Degree & Adjacency matrix

Degree of node i : number of neighbors of node i

Degree of network: < k >=average of the degrees of all nodes

Bounds:
Adjacency matrix A of a network:

if node i and j are neighbors else


Degree of node i : ;
Symmetric

Degree Distribution P(k)

P(k) = probability that a randomly selected node has exactly k edges

Clustering Coefficient C

Clustering coefficient of node n :

: the edges can exist at most among the neighbors of node i


: the actual number of edges

Clustering coefficient of network C= average of the Clustering Coefficient of all nodes

Distance

Distance d(n,m) between two nodes n and m = the number of links along the shortest path connecting them
Diameter of a network=

Average Distance L

Average distance L = average over all d(n,m)

Betweenness

Betweenness 𝐵 𝑙 of a link 𝑙: the number of shortest paths between all possible node pairs in 𝐺 that traverse the
link
Betweenness of a graph G:
Connectivity

Robustness

Basic Properties of Regular Networks


Complete Networks

Degree distribution: Dirac delta function


C=1
L=1

Star-shaped networks

L=2-N/2 (N>3)
C=0

Ring-shaped networks (K-nearest-neighbor)

L≈N/2K
C=3(K-2)/4(K-1)≈3/4
