Definitions and concepts

A network is specified by its links and nodes. However, it can be described by a much wider range of interesting and important topological features. This chapter introduces how a network can be characterized by its microscopic topological features and macroscopic topological features. Microscopic features introduced are degree and clustering coefficients. Macroscopic topological features introduced are the degree distribution; correlation between degrees of connected nodes; modularity; and, the eigenvalue spectrum (which counts the number of closed paths in the graph).
