rsm_model {multigraphr}

Random stub matching model for multigraphs

Description

Given a specified degree sequence, this function finds all unique multigraphs represented by their edge multiplicity sequences. Different complexity statistics together with their probability distributions and moments are calculated.

Usage

rsm_model(deg.seq)

Arguments

deg.seq

vector of integers representing the degree sequence of a multigraph.

Details

The probability distributions of all unique multigraphs given fixed degree sequence, together with the first two central moments and interval estimates of the statistics M1 = number of loops and M2 = number of multiple edges, under the RSM model are calculated.

For other structural statistics and for large multigraphs, use the IEA approximation of the RSM model via the function iea_model

Value

m.seq

possible multigraphs represented by edge multiplicity sequences

prob.dists

probability distribution of the multigraphs/edge multiplicity sequences, and the probability distributions of the statistics number of loops, number of multiple edges, and simple graph (logical) for each multigraph

M

summary of moments and interval estimates for number of loops and number of multiple edges (M1 and M2)).
