On the establishment of a mutant.

Abstract excerpt

How long does it take for an initially advantageous mutant to establish itself in a resident population, and what does the population composition look like then? We approach these questions in the framework of the so called Bare Bones evolution model (Klebaner et al. in J Biol Dyn 5(2):147-162, 2011. https://doi.org/10.1080/17513758.2010.506041) that provides a simplified approach to the adaptive population...
