Abstract excerpt
We reconsider deterministic models of mutation and selection acting on populations of sequences, or, equivalently, multilocus systems with complete linkage. Exact analytical results concerning such systems are few, and we present recent and new ones obtained with the help of methods from quantum statistical mechanics. We consider a continuous-time model for an infinite population of haploids (or diploids without...
