Abstract

Spectra of real world networks exhibit properties which are different from the random networks. One such property is the existence of a very high degeneracy at zero eigenvalues. In this work, we provide possible reasons behind occurrence of the zero degeneracy in various networks spectra. Comparison of zero degeneracy in protein-protein interaction networks of six different species and in their corresponding model networks sheds light in understanding the evolution of complex biological systems.
