Abstract

Reversibility of the Fleming--Viot process with mutation, selection, and recombination is well understood. In this paper, we study the reversibility of a system of Fleming--Viot processes that live on a countable number of colonies interacting with each other through migrations between the colonies. It is shown that reversibility fails when both migration and mutation are non-trivial.
