A density-dependent Wright–Fisher model is a model where the population size changes randomly depending on the genetic composition process. If population sizes Mn vary without density dependence then the condition ΣMn–1 = ∞ is necessary and sufficient for fixation. It is shown that the above condition is no longer necessary for fixation in the density dependent models. Another necessary condition for fixation is given. Some known results on series of functions of sums of i.i.d. random variables are generalized to weighted sums.

A general exchangeable bisexual model with variable population sizes is introduced. First the forward process, i.e. the number of certain descending pairs, is studied. For the bisexual Wright-Fisher model fixation of the descendants occurs, i.e. their proportion tends to 0 or 1 almost surely. The main part of this article deals with necessary and sufficient conditions for ultimate homozygosity, i.e. the proportion of an arbitrarily chosen allelic type tends to 0 or 1 almost surely. The results are applied to a bisexual Wright-Fisher model and to a bisexual Moran model.

AbstractLet G be a finite transitive permutation group of degree n, with point stabilizer {H\neq 1} and permutation character π. For every positive integer t, we consider the generalized character {\psi_{t}=\rho_{G}-t(\pi-1_{G})}, where {\rho_{G}} is the regular character of G and {1_{G}} the 1-character. We give necessary and sufficient conditions on t (and G) which guarantee that {\psi_{t}} is a character of G. A necessary condition is that {t\leq\min\{n-1,\lvert H\rvert\}}, and it turns out that {\psi_{t}} is a character of G for {t=n-1} resp. {t=\lvert H\rvert} precisely when G is 2-transitive resp. a Frobenius group.

Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for a square matrix to te the matrix of distances of a circulant code. These conditions are used to obtain some inequalities for cyclic difference sets, and a necessary condition for the existence of circulant weighing matrices.

Bloch Representation

We study the separability of bipartite quantum systems in arbitrary dimensions using the Bloch representation of their density matrix. This approach enables us to find an alternative characterization of the separability problem, from which we derive a necessary condition and sufficient conditions for separability. For a certain class of states the necessary condition and a sufficient condition turn out to be equivalent, therefore yielding a necessary and sufficient condition. The proofs of the sufficient conditions are constructive, thus providing decompositions in pure product states for the states that satisfy them. We provide examples that show the ability of these conditions to detect entanglement. In particular, the necessary condition is proved to be strong enough to detect bound entangled states.

Variable Population Size

A general exchangeable model is introduced to study gene survival in populations whose size changes without density dependence. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the occurrence of fixation (that is the proportion of one of the types tending to 1 with probability 1) are obtained. These are then applied to the Wright–Fisher model, the Moran model, and conditioned branching-process models. For the Wright–Fisher model it is shown that certain fixation is equivalent to certain extinction of one of the types, but that this is not the case for the Moran model.

Necessary And Sufficient

This script was aimed to determine the necessary conditions for boundedness of Riesz potential in the classical Morrey space. If these results are combined with previous research results will be obtained the necessary and sufficient condition for boundedness of Riesz potential. This necessary condition is obtained through the use of characteristic function as one member of the classical Morrey space.

Model Approach

AbstractRecent studies showing bias in the measurement of density dependence have the potential to sow confusion in the field of ecology. We provide clarity by elucidating key conceptual and statistical errors with the null-model approach used in Detto et al. (2019). We show that neither their null model nor a more biologically-appropriate null model reproduces differences in density-dependent recruitment between forests, indicating that the latitudinal gradient in negative density dependence is not an artefact of statistical bias. Finally, we suggest a path forward that combines observational comparisons of density dependence in multiple fitness components across localities with mechanistic and geographically-replicated experiments.

New Criteria

This paper addresses a decision problem highlighted by Grigorchuk, Nekrashevich, and Sushchanskiĭ, namely the finiteness problem for automaton (semi)groups. For semigroups, we give an effective sufficient but not necessary condition for finiteness and, for groups, an effective necessary but not sufficient condition. The efficiency of the new criteria is demonstrated by testing all Mealy automata with small stateset and alphabet. Finally, for groups, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition that does not directly lead to a decision procedure.
