Symmetry Measures on Complex Networks
by Angel Garrido (ed.) - MDPI AG
Symmetry and Complex Networks are essential in many sciences. That is why these two themes have been unified here, whose intersection we are dealing with: in its first part, of fundamentals, and in its second part of applications, which are multiple.
