The exact solution of the mutator model with directed mutations, linear fitness function, and finite genome length

Chinese Journal of Physics. 2018. Vol. 56. No. 5. P. 2235–2240.
Yakushkina T., Saakian D.

In this study, we considered the model by Beckman and Loeb [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 103 (2006) 14140] for the mutator phenomena. We construct an infinite population Crow-Kimura model with a mutator gene, directed mutations, a linear fitness function, and a finite genome length. We solved analytically the dynamics of the model using the generating function method. Such models provide realistic predictions for finite population sizes and have been widely discussed recently. The analytical formulas provided can be used to calculate the advantage of the mutator mechanism for the accumulation of mutations in cancer biology.

Effects of Elevation Changes and Multilevel Structures on Vehicular Signal Propagation
Stepanyants V., Andrey V. Fizulin, Chibirov A. et al., FUTURE TRANSPORTATION 2026 Vol. 6 No. 5 Article 225
Reliable Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) evaluation requires propagation models that represent terrain and multilevel infrastructure. Most integrated vehicular simulators still rely on planar models, but the magnitude of the resulting bias is unclear. This study quantitatively compares flattened two-dimensional (2D) and terrain-aware three-dimensional (3D) variants of three scenarios using identical Sionna RT settings. The pipeline combines OpenStreetMap ...

Modulational Instability and Wave Dynamics in the Rotated Modified Gardner–Whitham Equation
Flamarion M. V., Pelinovsky E., Chaos, Solitons and Fractals 2026 Vol. 213 No. 2 Article 119245
This article concerns the study of modulational instability in the rotated-modified Gardner–Whitham (rmGW) equation. This model incorporates both quadratic and cubic nonlinearities, similarly to the Gardner equation, while also retaining the fully dispersive character of the Whitham equation together with a large-scale dispersive term analogous to that in the Ostrovsky equation. Using a classical multiple-scale asymptotic expansion, we ...

Automated Ranking of Soybean Plots from Close-Range RGB Video via Depth Filtering and Point-Based Counting
Groshev Maksim, Rybakov Petr, Teterin N. et al., Sensors 2026 Article 6171
Manual assessment of soybean yield components, such as pod number, is laborious, time-consuming, and subjective. Existing computer-vision approaches based on object detection or instance segmentation perform poorly on close-range RGB imagery of soybean canopies due to severe occlusions, ambiguous plant boundaries, and the high cost of bounding-box annotation. To address these challenges, we propose a ...

Space-Time Fluctuations in a Quasi-static Limit
Bernardin C., Gonçalves P., Olla S., Mathematical Physics Analysis and Geometry 2024 Vol. 27 No. 7
We consider the macroscopic limit for the space-time density fluctuations in the open symmetric simple exclusion in the quasi-static scaling limit. We prove that the distribution of these fluctuations converge to a gaussian space-time field that is delta correlated in time but with long-range correlations in space. ...

To spike or not to spike: the whims of the Wonham filter in the strong noise regime
Bernardin C., Chhaibi R., Najnudel J. et al., Probability Theory and Related Fields 2026 Vol. 195 P. 1823–1875
We study the celebrated Shiryaev-Wonham filter (Wonham, W.M., in J. Soc. Ind. Appl. Math. 347–369, 1964) in its historical setup, where the hidden Markov jump process has two states. We are interested in the weak noise regime for the observation equation. Interestingly, this becomes a strong noise regime for the filtering equations. Earlier results of ...

Unraveling Epistatic Interactions Between Sites Under Drug-Dependent Selection in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Genome
Anfisa V. Popova, Bykova D., Fedonin G. et al., Molecular Biology and Evolution 2025 Vol. 42 No. 11 Article msaf264
Many Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) genome sites experience different selective forces depending on whether a patient is treated with antibiotics. Here, we searched for pairs of such sites that evolve interdependently. We reconstructed the phylogeny of more than 11,000 MTB clinical isolates with known phenotypes for at least one of 13 antitubercular drugs. By analyzing the ...

Senescence and entrenchment in evolution of amino acid sites
Popova A., Neverov A. D., Nature Communications 2020 Vol. 11 Article 4603
Amino acid propensities at a site change in the course of protein evolution. This may happen for two reasons. Changes may be triggered by substitutions at epistatically interacting sites elsewhere in the genome. Alternatively, they may arise due to environmental changes that are external to the genome. Here, we design a framework for distinguishing between ...

Allele-specific nonstationarity in evolution of influenza A virus surface proteins
Popova A., Neverov A. D., Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 2019 Vol. 116 No. 42 P. 21104–21112
Influenza A virus (IAV) is a major public health problem and a pandemic threat. Its evolution is largely driven by diversifying positive selection so that relative fitness of different amino acid variants changes with time due to changes in herd immunity or genomic context, and novel amino acid variants attain fitness advantage. Here, we hypothesize ...

Phylogenetic inference of changes in amino acid propensities with single-position resolution
Klink G. V., Kalinina O. V., Bazykin G. A., PLoS Computational Biology 2022 Vol. 18 No. 2 Article e1009878
Fitness conferred by the same allele may differ between genotypes and environments, and these differences shape variation and evolution. Changes in amino acid propensities at protein sites over the course of evolution have been inferred from sequence alignments statistically, but the existing methods are data-intensive and aggregate multiple sites. Here, we develop an approach to ...

Changing selection on amino acid substitutions in Gag protein between major HIV-1 subtypes
Klink G. V., Kalinina O., Bazykin G., Virus Evolution 2024 Vol. 10 No. 1 Article veae036
Amino acid preferences at a protein site depend on the role of this site in protein function and structure as well as on external constraints. All these factors can change in the course of evolution, making amino acid propensities of a site time-dependent. When viral subtypes divergently evolve in different host subpopulations, such changes may ...

Open quasispecies systems: New approach to evolutionary adaptation
Samokhin I., Yakushkina T., Bratus A., Chinese Journal of Physics 2021 P. 1–27
Consider a mathematical model of evolutionary adaptation of fitness landscape and mutation matrix as a reaction to population changes. As a basis, we use an open quasispecies model, which is modified to include explicit death flow. We assume that evolutionary parameters of mutation and selection processes vary in a way to maximize the mean fitness ...

Fitness optimization and evolution of permanent replicator systems
Drozhzhin S., Yakushkina T., Bratus A., Journal of Mathematical Biology 2021 Vol. 82 No. 3 Article 15
In this paper, we discuss fitness landscape evolution of permanent replicator systems applying the hypothesis that the specific time of evolutionary adaptation of system parameters is much slower than the time of internal evolutionary dynamics. In other words, we suppose that the extremal principle of Darwinian evolution based on Fisher’s fundamental theorem of natural selection ...

Mutator Gene Model with Three Classes of Evolutionary States
Saakian D., Yakushkina T., Journal of the Physical Society of Japan 2020 Vol. 89 Article 044801
The mutator gene model is one of the fundamental models of modern evolutionary dynamics. Usually, one considers a transition between two evolutionary regimes: the wild-type and mutator type. In this study, we introduce a hierarchy of three types with the transitions between them, considering an extra allele for the mutator gene. We examine both the ...

We consider the two-habitat quasispecies model, which describes evolutionary process with migration on the basis of the Eigen model. In the first habitat there is only one genotype, and here is an influx of the replicators from the first habitat to the second one with the rate h. We solve exactly the case of a single-peak ...

Evolutionary model with recombination and randomly changing fitness landscape
Saakian D., Vardanyan E., Yakushkina T., Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 2020 Vol. 541 Article 123091
We investigate the evolutionary model with recombination and random switches in the fitness function due to change in a special gene. The dynamical behaviour of the fitness landscape induced by the specific mutations is closely related to the mutator phenomenon, which, together with recombination, plays an important role in modern evolutionary studies. It is of ...
