Table 1 Main properties of the data sets used in the present study. N: number of nodes, L: number of edges, \(\langle k \rangle\): average degree, \(k_{\max }\): maximum degree, \(\langle ks \rangle\): average value of the \(k\)-shell index, D: maximum value of the \(k\)-shell index, \(N_\text {c}^{{\texttt {Lvn}{}}}\), \(Q^{\texttt {Lvn}{}}\): number of communities determined by the Louvain method and the corresponding modularity, respectively, \(N_\text {c}^{{\texttt {SBM}{}}}\), \(Q^{\texttt {SBM}{}}\): number of communities determined by the SBM and the corresponding modularity, respectively.

From: Interplay between \(k\)-core and community structure in complex networks
