Evolutionary dynamics of competing phenotype-structured populations in periodically fluctuating environments
Aleksandra Ardaševa, Robert A. Gatenby, Alexander R. A. Anderson +3
Living species, ranging from bacteria to animals, exist in environmental conditions that exhibit spatial and temporal heterogeneity which requires them to adapt. Risk-spreading thr…
The Critical Domain Size of Stochastic Population Models
Jody R. Reimer, Michael B. Bonsall, Philip K. Maini
Identifying the critical domain size necessary for a population to persist is an important question in ecology. Both demographic and environmental stochasticity impact a population…
Prey switching with a linear preference trade-off
S. H. Piltz, M. A. Porter, P. K. Maini
In ecology, prey switching refers to a predator's adaptive change of habitat or diet in response to prey abundance. In this paper, we study piecewise-smooth models of predator-prey…
A Markov chain model of evolution in asexually reproducing populations: insight and analytical tractability in the evolutionary process
Daniel Nichol, Peter Jeavons, Robert Bonomo +5
The evolutionary process has been modelled in many ways using both stochastic and deterministic models. We develop an algebraic model of evolution in a population of asexually repr…
Ergodic directional switching in mobile insect groups
Carlos Escudero, Christian A. Yates, Jerome Buhl +4
We obtain a Fokker-Planck equation describing experimental data on the collective motion of locusts. The noise is of internal origin and due to the discrete character and finite nu…
