Integer constant, the dimension of the starting lattice.
size
Integer constant, the size of the lattice along each
dimension.
nei
Integer constant, the neighborhood within which the
vertices of the lattice will be connected.
p
Real constant between zero and one, the rewiring
probability.
loops
Logical scalar, whether loops edges are allowed in the
generated graph.
multiple
Logical scalar, whether multiple edges are allowed
int the generated graph.
Value
A graph object.
concept
Small-world model
Watts-strogatz model
Details
First a lattice is created with the given dim, size and
nei arguments. Then the edges of the lattice are rewired
uniformly randomly with probability p.
Note that this function might create graphs with loops and/or multiple
edges. You can use simplify to get rid of these.
