摘要

摘要本文介绍了离散时间模型。N的每个位点代表一个生态位，并在(0,1)中分配适应度。所有站点在每个离散时间同时更新。在任何给定时间，环境可能以p的概率正常，也可能以1 - p的概率发生灾难。如果环境正常，则每个位点的适应度由其当前适应度的最大值和一个随机数代替。如果发生突变，每个位点的适合度将被一个随机数代替。我们在任意固定时间计算任意有限个站点的联合适应度分布。我们还证明了该系统收敛于平稳分布。这也是显式计算的。作者希望感谢两位匿名审稿人的仔细阅读和周到的建议。作者简介:aldo B.

Collective Evolution Under Catastrophes

AbstractWe introduce the following discrete time model. Each site of N represents an ecological niche and is assigned a fitness in (0,1). All the sites are updated simultaneously at every discrete time. At any given time the environment may be normal with probability p or a catastrophe may occur with probability 1−p. If the environment is normal the fitness of each site is replaced by the maximum of its current fitness and a random number. If there is a catastrophe the fitness of each site is replaced by a random number. We compute the joint fitness distribution of any finite number of sites at any fixed time. We also show convergence of this system to a stationary distribution. This too is computed explicitly.MSC: 60 ACKNOWLEDGMENTThe author wishes to thank two anonymous referees for their careful reading and thoughtful suggestions.Additional informationNotes on contributorsRinaldo B.

期刊介绍： The Monthly''s readers expect a high standard of exposition; they look for articles that inform, stimulate, challenge, enlighten, and even entertain. Monthly articles are meant to be read, enjoyed, and discussed, rather than just archived. Articles may be expositions of old or new results, historical or biographical essays, speculations or definitive treatments, broad developments, or explorations of a single application. Novelty and generality are far less important than clarity of exposition and broad appeal. Appropriate figures, diagrams, and photographs are encouraged. Notes are short, sharply focused, and possibly informal. They are often gems that provide a new proof of an old theorem, a novel presentation of a familiar theme, or a lively discussion of a single issue. Abstracts for articles or notes should entice the prospective reader into exploring the subject of the paper and should make it clear to the reader why this paper is interesting and important. The abstract should highlight the concepts of the paper rather than summarize the mechanics. The abstract is the first impression of the paper, not a technical summary of the paper. Excessive use of notation is discouraged as it can limit the interest of the broad readership of the MAA, and can limit search-ability of the article.
