Diagonal Degree Correlations vs. Epidemic Threshold in Scale-Free Networks

We prove that the presence of a diagonal assortative degree correlation, even if small, has the effect of dramatically lowering the epidemic threshold of large scale-free networks. The correlation matrix considered is Ph|k=1−rPhkU+rδhk, where PU is uncorrelated and r (the Newman assortativity coeffi...
