Two measures of effective population size for graphs.

Abstract excerpt

Effective population size is a key parameter in population ecology because it allows prediction of the dynamics of genetic variation and the rate of genetic drift and inbreeding. It is important for the definition of "nearly neutral" mutations and, hence, has consequences for the fixation or extinction probabilities of advantageous and deleterious mutations. As graph-based population models become increasingly...
