  • Abstract
    There are many different models–both continuous and discrete–used to describe gene mutation fixation. In particular, the Moran process, the Kimura equation and the replicator dynamics are all well known models, that might lead to different conclusions. We present a discussion of a unified framework to embrace all these models, in the large population regime.
