Equilibrium and Nonequilibrium Attractors for a Discrete, Selection-migration Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
This study presents a discrete-time model for the effects of selection and immigration on the demographic and genetic compositions of a population. Under biologically reasonable conditions, it is shown that the model always has an equilibrium. Although equilibria for similar models without migration must have real eigenvalues, for this selection-migration model we illustrate a Hopf bifurcation which produces longterm stable oscillations in allele frequency and population density. The interplay between the selection parameters in the fitness functions and the migration parameters is displayed by using migration parameters to reverse destabilizing bifurcations that occur as intrinsic density parameters are varied. Also, the rich dynamics for this selection-migration model are illustrated by a period-doubling cascade resulting in a pulsating strange attractor.

Dynamical behavior and synchronization of chaotic chemical reactors model
In this paper, we discuss the dynamical properties of a chemical reactor model including Lyapunov exponents, bifurcation, stability of equilibrium and chaotic attractors as well as necessary conditions for this system to generate chaos. We study the synchronization of chemical reactors model via sliding mode control scheme. The stability of proposed method is proved by Barbalate’s lemma. Numeri...
متن کاملGlobal attractors and extinction dynamics of cyclically competing species.
Transitions to absorbing states are of fundamental importance in nonequilibrium physics as well as ecology. In ecology, absorbing states correspond to the extinction of species. We here study the spatial population dynamics of three cyclically interacting species. The interaction scheme comprises both direct competition between species as in the cyclic Lotka-Volterra model, and separated select...
متن کاملA genomic scan for divergent selection in a secondary contact zone between Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico oysters, Crassostrea virginica.
The degree of population structure within species often varies considerably among loci. This makes it difficult to determine whether observed variance reflects neutral-drift stochasticity or locus-specific selection at one or more loci. This uncertainty is exacerbated when evolutionary equilibrium cannot be assumed and/or admixture potentially inflates genomic variance. Thus, the value of a 'ge...
متن کاملMultilocus selection in subdivided populations I. Convergence properties for weak or strong migration.
The dynamics and equilibrium structure of a deterministic population-genetic model of migration and selection acting on multiple multiallelic loci is studied. A large population of diploid individuals is distributed over finitely many demes connected by migration. Generations are discrete and nonoverlapping, migration is irreducible and aperiodic, all pairwise recombination rates are positive, ...
متن کاملNonmonotonic effects of migration in subdivided populations.
The influence of migration on the stochastic dynamics of subdivided populations is still an open issue in various evolutionary models. Here, we develop a self-consistent mean-field-like method in order to determine the effects of migration on relevant nonequilibrium properties, such as the mean fixation time. If evolution strongly favors coexistence of species (e.g., balancing selection), the m...
