A field theoretic approach to non-equilibrium population genetics in the strong selection regime

2023-01-19

Abstract excerpt

Natural populations are virtually never observed in equilibrium, yet equilibrium approximations comprise the majority of our understanding of population genetics. Using standard tools from statistical physics, a formalism is presented that re-expresses the stochastic equations describing allelic evolution as a partition functional over all possible allelic trajectories (‘paths’) governed by selection, mutation, an...
