摘要

We investigate the impact of degree-degree correlations on the spectra of networks. Even though density distributions exhibit drastic changes depending on the (dis)assortative mixing and the network architecture, the short-range correlations in eigenvalues exhibit universal random matrix theory predictions. The long-range correlations turn out to be a measure of randomness in (dis)assortative networks. The analysis further provides insight into the origin of high degeneracy at the zero eigenvalue displayed by a majority of biological networks.
