iii
At late times the first sine mode dominates, with growth exponent
μ−L2Dπ2​.
(1)
Thus
μc​(D,L)=L2Dπ2​,
(2)
and the population grows precisely when μ>μc​. Faster diffusion carries organisms to the lethal ends more quickly and raises the threshold; a longer channel lowers the principal diffusion eigenvalue and therefore lowers the threshold.
