Schwinger Boson Formulation and Solution of the Crow-Kimura and Eigen Models of Quasispecies Theory
Jeong-Man Park, Michael W. Deem
We express the Crow-Kimura and Eigen models of quasispecies theory in a functional integral representation. We formulate the spin coherent state functional integrals using the Schw…
