Abstract excerpt
In this paper we develop a theory to describe stochastic influences on the fate of new species with non-linear growth rates in evolutionary processes. We develop a theoretical framework based on notions of species, network, innovation, competition, survival and fitness. We introduce a stochastic picture describing the role of fluctuations in the survival of new species in non-linear systems. In particular we...
