The free energy method and the Wright-Fisher model with 2 alleles.

Theory in biosciences = Theorie in den Biowissenschaften - 1 Dec 2015

Tran Tat Dat, Hofrichter Julian, Jost Jürgen

Abstract excerpt

We systematically investigate the Wright-Fisher model of population genetics with the free energy functional formalism of statistical mechanics and in the light of recent mathematical work on the connection between Fokker-Planck equations and free energy functionals. In statistical physics, entropy increases, or equivalently, free energy decreases, and the asymptotic state is given by a Gibbs-type distribution....
