Asymptotic behavior of Eigen's quasispecies model

Populations and Evolution 2017-04-25 v1 Dynamical Systems

Abstract

We study Eigen's quasispecies model in the asymptotic regime where the length of the genotypes goes to infinity and the mutation probability goes to 0. A limiting infinite system of differential equations is obtained. We prove the convergence of the trajectories, as well as the convergence of the equilibrium solutions. We give the analogous results for a discrete-time version of Eigen's model, which coincides with a model proposed by Moran.
