A geometric buildup algorithm for the solution of the distance geometry problem using least-squares approximation.

abstract：:This paper considers a model of foodwebs taking into account species extinction and invasion. We show that system stability depends not only on usual parameters (mortality rates, self-limitation coefficients, and resource abundances), but also on an additional parameter ("biodiversity potential"). The main result is a...
