May food-web stability (Jacobian random-matrix)

Layer 3 — Biologyin the Community Ecology subtree

May 1972: random S-species community matrix M with off-diagonal variance σ², connectance C is locally stable iff σ√(SC) < 1. Reframes complexity-stability debate via spectral radius of Jacobian; extensions (Allesina-Tang) refine to…
