Abstract: We study the multi-species replicator model with linear fitness and random fitness matrices of various classes. By means of numerical resolution of the replicator equations, we determine the survival probability of a species in terms of its average interaction with the rest of the system. The role of the interaction pattern of the ecosystem in defining survival and extinction probabilities is emphasized.
