On Counting the Population Size [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2019 ACM Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing, 2019 We consider the problem of counting the population size in the population model.

In each time step, the two interacting agents are selected uniformly at random.

FLUCTUATING POPULATION SIZE AND THE RATIO OF EFFECTIVE TO CENSUS POPULATION SIZE [PDF]
Evolution, 1997 The effective size of a population (Ne) quantifies the rate at which genetic diversity is eroded by genetic drift (i.e., 112Ne per generation), a fundamental process of evolutionary change. Genetic diversity and its rate of decay have been linked with key components of population fitness (Allendorf and Leary 1987; Ralls et al. 1988; Briscoe et al. 1992;
