Clarifying How Degree Entropies and Degree-Degree Correlations Relate to Network Robustness

It is often claimed that the entropy of a network’s degree distribution is a proxy for its robustness. Here, we clarify the link between degree distribution entropy and giant component robustness to node removal by showing that the former merely sets a lower bound to the latter for randomly configur...
