Symmetric underdominant two-cluster equilibrium

ID: symmetric-underdominant-two-cluster-equilibrium

With equally many initially pure habitats of each allele, symmetry preserves . The heterogeneous equilibrium exists for . Its full-system eigenvalues are in the mean-frequency direction and in the antisymmetric direction, so it attracts general nearby perturbations only for . Exact symmetry can preserve both alleles beyond this robust range; at stronger migration it approaches the unstable uniform midpoint.
