Evolutionary branching of function-valued traits under constraints
Ito, H. C.
Show abstract
Some evolutionary traits are described by scalars and vectors, while others are described by continuous functions on spaces (e.g., shapes of organisms, resource allocation strategies between growth and reproduction along time, and effort allocation strategies for continuous resource distributions along resource property axes). The latter are called function-valued traits. This study develops conditions for candidate evolutionary branching points, referred to as CBP conditions, for function-valued traits under simple equality constraints, in the framework of adaptive dynamics theory (i.e., asexual reproduction and rare mutation are assumed). CBP conditions are composed of conditions for evolutionary singularity, strong convergence stability, and evolutionary instability. The CBP conditions for function-valued traits are derived by transforming the CBP conditions for vector traits into those for infinite-dimensional vector traits.
Matching journals
The top 3 journals account for 50% of the predicted probability mass.
"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
