a Schematic topologies of the PBAONC networks defined over the parameter space. b Schematic of an N-node PBAONC complex network (N = 10) that are parameterized to Dmax = N-1 = 9 and Dmin = 2. Connections are displayed by thick lines. The connection range of node i in the clockwise direction is shown schematically as a thin solid concentric arc starting from the radial line through node i and covering the other Di nodes (The arrows on the lines between nodes indicate the connection direction). For node 9 (10) in this schematic, a part of the (the whole) concentric arc on the clockwise side of node 10 is dashed, indicating that no connection is projected from node 9 (10) to nodes covered by the corresponding dashed arc. For the sake of simplicity, the connection (if present) extended from the first node to the last node (i.e., the Nth one counted in the clockwise direction) is represented by a short counterclockwise arrow covering the gap between them.
