Fixation probabilities on the superstar graph

Note that the fixation probabilities are not the same for all vertices. In particular, if the mutant is placed in the hub (vertex $0$) or the linear chain (vertices $1-15$), its fixation probability is very small. The worst places for the mutant to arise are the 'hot' vertices with many links feeding into them, i.e. the hub as well as the first vertices of the linear chain (vertices $1-5$). For symmetry reasons, all reservoir vertices have the same fixation probabilities. The fixation probability for the original Moran process is shown as a dark red line for reference.

For the simulations, the population size is $N=96$ with $5$ branches and $k=5$. The fitness of residents is set to $1$ and that of mutants to $2$. Note that the overall fixation probability of mutants is systematically (and significantly) less than the analytical prediction of $97\mathrm{\%}$. The deviations are due to different kinds of finite size effects but again the primary cause is an unfortunate initial location of the mutant. Assuming that mutants in the hub and linear chain never succeed would account for $16.7\mathrm{\%}$ of the deviation.

Game parameters

The list below describes only the few parameters related to the evolutionary dynamics of residents and mutants with fixed fitness (constant selection). Numerous other parameters are available to set population structures or update rules on the player as well as population level.

--fitness <r,m>
