Abstract

A novel analytical method is proposed for calculation of average fixation and extinction times of mutants in a general structured population of two types of species. The method is based on Markov chains and uses a mean field approximation to calculate the corresponding transition matrix. Analytical results are compared with the results of simulation of the Moran process on a number of population structures.
