... f'' < 0 (weak trade-off), disruptive selection cannot occur. If the trade-off is strong (f'' > 0) and f is a power function with exponent m, the above inequality implies that x =1/2 is a branching point (Geritz et al. 1998) for m > 1/s. Recall that this result requires that v be sufficiently small ...
