The proportion of matrices that are locally stable, these matrices are created by sampling the values of the community matrix
(the Jacobian) from a uniform distribution, preserving the sign structure 1. If the 'ig' parameter is
an mgraph
network it needs to have been built with the order c("Competitive", "Mutualistic", "Trophic")
It also calculates the mean of the real part of the maximum eingenvalue, which is also a measure of stability 2.
It uses a uniform distribution between 0 and maximum values given by the parameters negative
, positive
and selfDamping
,
corresponding to the sign of interactions and self-limitation effect 3,4.
If the edges of the networks have a weigth attribute and istrength
parameter is true, weigth will be used as interaction strength, then the limits of the uniform distribution
will be negative*-x
, positive*x
where x is the value of the weigth for the edge.
If the values of these parameters are 0 then there is no interaction of that kind.

ig |
igraph or a list of igraph networks or mgraph network |
nsim |
number of simulations to calculate QSS |
ncores |
number of cores to use in parallel comutation if 0 it uses sequential processing |
negative |
the maximum magnitude of the negative interaction (the effect of the predator on the prey) must be <= 0 |
positive |
the maximum magnitude of the positive interaction (the effect of the prey on the predator) must be >= 0 |
selfDamping |
the maximum magnitude of the self-limitation (the effect of the species on itself) must be <= 0 |
istrength |
If TRUE takes the weigth attribute of the network as interaction strength. |
a data.frame with the QSS, and MEing, the mean of the real part of the maximum eingenvalue
