Summary

A dynamical system model of the simple evolutionary process is considered. Evolution running with proportional selection and normally distributed mutation is regarded on phenotypic level. Fixed points of the system and their stability for various fitness functions: symmetrical and asymmetrical, uni- and bimodal, are provided. The system demonstrates an unstable behavior for certain parameters of the process. The knowledge obtained from the study can be exploited to set parameters of the process applied to optimization tasks or to identify parameters of an unknown fitness function in the case of “black-box” tasks.
