Abstract:We derive rigorous estimates on the speed of invasion of an advantageous trait in a spatially advancing population in the context of a system of one-dimensional F-KPP equations. The model was introduced and studied heuristically and numerically in a paper by . In that paper, it was noted that the speed of invasion by the mutant trait is faster faster when the resident population ist expanding in space compared to the speed when the resident population is already present everywhere. We use the Feynman-Kac repre… Show more
