Asymptotic behavior of Eigen's quasispecies model

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
