This thesis presents two different models to study how recombination and migration shuffle genetic diversity. In the first model, recombination is the only evolutionary force. At time 0, each individual has her unique chromosome painted in a distinct color. By the blending effect of recombination, the genomes of the descending individuals look like mosaics of colors, each color representing the genetic material inherited from a different ancestral individual. Each segment of the same color is called an identical-by-descent (IBD) segment. We have been able to characterize the sizes and positions of the segments that are IBD to a given locus in the chromosome of a randomly sampled individual in the population. The second model is devoted to...
