Fig. 2: Role of the first moments of the degree distribution on evolutionary dynamics.

Fig. 2

The dots represent ensemble averages across 106 replicate Monte Carlo simulations, while the lines represent our analytical approximations. A, B We plot the probabilities and times to fixation as a function of the mean of the degree distribution. We use preferential attachment PA graphs, graph size N = 1000 and Ns = 10. C, D We plot the probabilities and times to fixation as a function of the variance of the degree distribution, while keeping mean degree constant, as in the legend. Here, graphs are PA graphs, N = 100 and Ns = 5. Probability and time to fixation for well-mixed model are calculated using methods outlined in ref. 40 (see the “Analytic description” subsection).
