[docs]@not_implemented_for('directed') @not_implemented_for('multigraph') def rich_club_coefficient(G, normalized=True, Q=100): r"""Returns the rich-club coefficient of the graph `G`. For each degree *k*, the *rich-club coefficient* is the ratio of the number of actual to the number of potential edges for nodes with degree greater than *k*: .. math:: \phi(k) = \frac{2 E_k}{N_k (N_k - 1)} where `N_k` is the number of nodes with degree larger than *k*, and `E_k` is the number of edges among those nodes. Parameters ---------- G : NetworkX graph Undirected graph with neither parallel edges nor self-loops. normalized : bool (optional) Normalize using randomized network as in [1]_ Q : float (optional, default=100) If `normalized` is True, perform `Q * m` double-edge swaps, where `m` is the number of edges in `G`, to use as a null-model for normalization. Returns ------- rc : dictionary A dictionary, keyed by degree, with rich-club coefficient values. Examples -------- >>> G = nx.Graph([(0, 1), (0, 2), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (4, 5)]) >>> rc = nx.rich_club_coefficient(G, normalized=False) >>> rc[0] # doctest: +SKIP 0.4 Notes ----- The rich club definition and algorithm are found in [1]_. This algorithm ignores any edge weights and is not defined for directed graphs or graphs with parallel edges or self loops. Estimates for appropriate values of `Q` are found in [2]_.
