Natural selection of mutants that modify population structure
Josef Tkadlec, Kamran Kaveh, Krishnendu Chatterjee +1
Evolution occurs in populations of reproducing individuals. It is well known that population structure can affect evolutionary dynamics. Traditionally, natural selection is studied…
Infection dynamics of COVID-19 virus under lockdown and reopening
Jakub Svoboda, Josef Tkadlec, Andreas Pavlogiannis +2
Motivated by COVID-19, we develop and analyze a simple stochastic model for a disease spread in human population. We track how the number of infected and critically ill people deve…
The Moran process on 2-chromatic graphs
Kamran Kaveh, Alex McAvoy, Krishnendu Chatterjee +1
Resources are rarely distributed uniformly within a population. Heterogeneity in the concentration of a drug, the quality of breeding sites, or wealth can all affect evolutionary d…
Social goods dilemmas in heterogeneous societies
Alex McAvoy, Benjamin Allen, Martin A. Nowak
Prosocial behaviors are encountered in the donation game, the prisoner's dilemma, relaxed social dilemmas, and public goods games. Many studies assume that the population structure…
Turbulent coherent structures and early life below the Kolmogorov scale
Madison S. Krieger, Sam Sinai, Martin A. Nowak
A great number of biological organisms live in aqueous environments. Major evolutionary transitions, including the emergence of life itself, likely occurred in such environments. W…
Limits on amplifiers of natural selection under death-Birth updating
Josef Tkadlec, Andreas Pavlogiannis, Krishnendu Chatterjee +1
The fixation probability of a single mutant invading a population of residents is among the most widely-studied quantities in evolutionary dynamics. Amplifiers of natural selection…
