Abstract excerpt
We map the Eigen model of biological evolution [Naturwissenschaften 58, 465 (1971)] into a quantum spin model with non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. Based on such a connection, we derive exact relaxation periods for the Eigen model to approach static energy landscape from various initial conditions. We also study a simple case of dynamic fitness function.
