  1. N is the network size. |E| is the number of edges. d is the diameter. L is the average shortest path length. \(L_{rand}\) and \(C_{rand}\) are respectively the average shortest path and the average clustering coefficient of the corresponding random network. \(\mu\) is the density. \(\zeta\) is the transitivity. \(\lambda\) is the assortativity also called degree correlation coefficient. \(\eta\) is the hub dominance
