Evolutionary behavior in a two-locus system

Dynamical Systems 2022-10-04 v1

Abstract

In this short note we study a dynamical system generated by a two-parametric quadratic operator mapping 3-dimensional simplex to itself. This is an evolution operator of the frequencies of gametes in a two-locus system. We find the set of all (a continuum set) fixed points and show that each fixed point is non-hyperbolic. We completely describe the set of all limit points of the dynamical system. Namely, for any initial point (taken from the 3-dimensional simplex) we find an invariant set containing the initial point and a unique fixed point of the operator, such that the trajectory of the initial point converges to this fixed point.
