| Abstract | We study a mathematical model from population genetics, describing a single-locus diallelic (A/a) selection–migration process. The model consists of a coupled system of three reaction–diffusion equations, one for the density of each genotype, posed in the whole space $${\mathbb R^n}$$ . The genotype AA is advantageous, due to a smaller death rate, and we consider the fully recessive case where the other two genotypes aa and Aa have the same (higher) death rate. In the nondiffusive (spatially homogeneous) case, the disadvantageous gene a is always eliminated in the large time limit. In the presence of diffusion, when the birth rate exceeds a certain threshold value, we prove that this conclusion is still true for dimensions n ≤ 2, whereas for n ≥ 3 there exist initial distributions for which the advantageous gene A ultimately disappears. This is the first rigorous result of this type for the full system, and it solves a problem which seems to have been open since the celebrated work of Aronson and Weinberger (Lecture notes in mathematics, vol 446, Springer, New York, pp 5–49, 1975; Adv Math 30, 33–76, 1977), where similar results had been obtained for a simplified scalar model, that they derived as an approximation of the full system. Interestingly, we moreover show that, at the threshold value of the birth rate, the cut-off dimension shifts from n = 2 to n = 6. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
