Abstract

Stochastic models in population genetics which lead to diffusion equations are considered. A geometric formula for the asymptotic expansions of the fundamental solutions of these equations is presented. Specifically, the random genetic drift process of one-locus theory and the Ohta–Kimura model of two-locus di-allelic systems with linkage are studied. Agreement with the work of Keller and Voronka for the two-allele one-locus case is obtained. For the general n-allele problem, the formulas obtained here are apparently new.
