The density <math>D</math> of a network is defined as a ratio of the number of edges <math>E</math> to the number of possible edges in a network with <math>N</math> nodes, given (in the case of simple graphs) by the [[binomial coefficient]] <math>\tbinom N2</math>, giving <math>D =\frac{E-(N-1)}{Emax - (N-1)} = \frac{2(E-N+1)}{N(N-3)+2}</math> | The density <math>D</math> of a network is defined as a ratio of the number of edges <math>E</math> to the number of possible edges in a network with <math>N</math> nodes, given (in the case of simple graphs) by the [[binomial coefficient]] <math>\tbinom N2</math>, giving <math>D =\frac{E-(N-1)}{Emax - (N-1)} = \frac{2(E-N+1)}{N(N-3)+2}</math> |
