A Stochastic Dynamical Model for Sympatric Speciation in a Two-phenotype Population.

Abstract excerpt

The sympatric speciation is an important phenomenon in the Evolution where a population able to express two different phenotypes gives rise to a new species without a physical separation from the initial population. Our goal is to show as simple assumptions on the initial population phenotypes and the selection process induced by a fluctuating environment allow to define a simple stochastic model that can explain...
