Dynamics of two-element populations in the space of population states

The model of phenotypic evolution is considered where a population is ruled by proportional selection and normally distributed mutation. Expected values of the population state generate a discrete dynamical system. The system displays various asymptotic behavior depending on a fitness function and a mutation parameter. Stable fixed points, period-doubling bifurcations and chaos are observed. Lyapunov exponents are used to detect chaos in the system for some fitness functions.
