This chapter deals with a uniform version of evolutionary stability which we propose to call uninvadability (note that, in contrast, Maynard Smith [1982, p.205] and Thomas [1985] use the terms “uninvadable” and “evolutionary stable” synonymously). According to our definition in Section 4.1, a state is uninvadable if it is protected by a positive global invasion barrier. As it turns out, this
