Understanding clustering in type space using field theoretic techniques.

Abstract excerpt

The birth/death process with mutation describes the evolution of a population, and displays rich dynamics including clustering and fluctuations. We discuss an analytical 'field-theoretical' approach to the birth/death process, using a simple dimensional analysis argument to describe evolution as a 'super-Brownian motion' in the infinite population limit. The field theory technique provides corrections to this for...
