Isn't one usually a subset of the other? I can't think of a way of doing SSO without single identity, unless you do it without doing separate identities. (So I guess from the point of view of wanting single sign-on group authorisation, or something like that.) So they're orthogonal sometimes, but in the general case they're actually not (because in the general case you want to identify granularly, then apply group membership and similar aspects of identity to determine authentication; so you want SSO to work at the level of single identity). I'm probably missing something here...
