We consider the size and structure of the automorphism groups of a variety of empirical `real-world' networks and find that, in contrast to classical random graph models, many real-world networks are richly symmetric. We relate automorphism…

Many complex networks, ranging from social to biological systems, exhibit structural patterns consistent with an underlying hyperbolic geometry. Revealing the dimensionality of this latent space can disentangle the structural complexity of…

This letter deals with the controllability issue of complex networks. An index is chosen to quantitatively measure the extent of controllability of given network. The effect of this index is analyzed based on empirical studies on various…
