23. ij is defined as the probability that a randomly chosen edge is connected to a vertex of type i at its A end and type j at its B end. Thus every edge, whether it joins unlike vertices or like ones, appears only once in the matrix - no edge appears both above and below the diagonal. It is possible to construct a theory in which the ends of undirected edges are indistinguishable, but in this case each edge that joins unlike vertices appears twice in the matrix, both above and below the diagonal, and edges joining like vertices appear only once. This necessitates the introduction of an extra factor of 2 into the off-diagonal terms. This approach is adopted for example in Ref. [43].

39. Perhaps it is stretching a point a little to regard links between marriage partners as forming a network, since presumably most people have only one marriage at a time. However, if we view the ages of marriage partners as a guide to the ages of sexual partners in general, then the resulting assortative mixing also describes networks of such more general partnerships, which are certainly very real [25,26,49,64].

45. One can also calculate a value for r by simply ignoring the directed nature of the edges in a directed network. This approach, which we adopted in Ref. [22], will in general give a different figure from that given by Eq. (25). While Eq. (25) will normally give a more meaningful result for a directed network, there may be cases in which ignoring direction is the correct thing to do. For example, in a food web one might only be interested in which species have tropic relations with with others, and not in which direction that relation lies in terms of energy or carbon flow.

66. Not all graphs with r = 0 are without degree correlations. A measurement of r = 0 implies only that the mean degree correlation is zero when averaged over all degrees. The grown graph model of Barabási and Albert [6] provides an example of a network that possesses degree correlations although it has r = 0 [22].
