How successful are mutants in multiplayer games with fluctuating environments? Sojourn times, fixation and optimal switching

Using a stochastic model, we investigate the probability of fixation, and the average time taken to achieve fixation, of a mutant in a population of wild-types. We do this in a context where the environment in which the competition takes place is subject to stochastic change. Our model takes into ac...
