Notation

Type of quantity	Symbol	Description
Indices	j = 1,..., J	Index over alleles
	k = 1,..., K	Index over source populations
Allele frequencies	pkj	Frequency of allelic type j in population k
	$\frac{p_k}{P}$	J × 1 vector of allele frequencies for population k J × K matrix of allele frequencies in the source populations
	${\overline{p}}_j$	Frequency of allelic type j in the admixed population
Admixture fractions	γk	Admixture fraction for population k
	γ	K × 1 vector of admixture fractions
Heterozygosities	Hk	Heterozygosity for population k; probability that two alleles drawn from population k differ in type
	Hadm	Heterozygosity for the admixed population
	Ckℓ	Probability that an allele drawn from population k and an allele drawn from population ℓ differ in type
Fixation index	Fkℓ	Fixation index FST between populations k and ℓ
