| Abstract: | Eigen [7] has employed deterministic kinetic-like equations to describe macromolecular replication and mutation leading to selection. The solutions to these equations and their physically interesting properties depend upon the spectrum of a type of matrix appearing in those equations. Below we explicitly solve for the spectrum of a fairly general class of such matrices. These solutions are obtained recursively for equations describing macromolecules of any length v. |
