In Example, define [math]f(i)[/math] to be the

proportion of G genes in state [math]i[/math]. Show that [math]f[/math] is a harmonic function (see Exercise Exercise). Why does this show that the probability of being absorbed in state [math](\mbox{GG},\mbox{GG})[/math] is equal to the proportion of G genes in the starting state? (See Exercise Exercise.)
