Competition and the canonical ensemble.

Mathematical biosciences - 1 Apr 1996

Smith J D

Abstract excerpt

Gibbs' canonical ensemble model from equilibrium statistical mechanics furnishes solutions to Eigen's phenomenological rate equations under constant total organization in cases with or without mutability. The evolution of species with mutation under constant total organization reduces to the evolution of substantial virtual species without mutation under the same constant total organization. Application of the...
