Mathematical Population Genetics 1
This is the first of a planned two-volume work discussing the mathematical aspects of population genetics with an emphasis on evolutionary theory. This volume draws heavily from the author’s 1979 classic, but it has been revised and expanded to include recent topics which follow naturally from the treatment in the earlier edition, such as the theory of molecular population genetics.
Statistical Methods in Bioinformatics
Advances in computers and biotechnology have had a profound impact on biomedical research, and as a result complex data sets can now be generated to address extremely complex biological questions. Correspondingly, advances in the statistical methods necessary to analyze such data are following closely behind the advances in data generation methods. The statistical methods required by bioinformatics present many new and difficult problems for the research community. This book provides an introduction to some of these new methods. The main biological topics treated include sequence analysis, BLAST, microarray analysis, gene finding, and the analysis of evolutionary processes. The main statisti...
Probability and Mathematical Genetics
No leading university department of mathematics or statistics, or library, can afford to be without this unique text. Leading authorities give a unique insight into a wide range of currently topical problems, from the mathematics of road networks to the genomics of cancer.
On the Real Origin of Species by Means of Life
How life came about with its amazing diversity and variety has been the subject of debate for almost as long as humanity has existed. Are the features observed in life indicative of pseudo-purpose, or do they have an actual purpose? On the Real Origin of Species by Means of Life: Tracing the Purposeful Design of Life unravels part of the mystery of all mysteries and shines a light on many untold secrets through new scientific discoveries. It presents a comprehensive, scientifically backed refutation of the theory of evolution and the neo-Darwinian paradigm, drawing on evidence from multiple scientific disciplines. The book proposes a new theory that explains life’s incredible diversity and...
Changing Scenes in the Natural Sciences, 1776-1976
This book is the result of a symposium held in Phila., PA, in April 1976, on the bicentennial of Amer. independence. It reviewed the contributions of evolution, systematics, quantitative genetics, ecology, & sociobiology to our understanding of the natural world. The papers identify fundamental shortcomings existing within each discipline. They suggest a need for an integration of these sciences & a more thorough testing within each discipline of the theory of evolution by means of natural selection. Papers are organized by theme: The Changing Scenes; The Influence of the New World on the Study of Natural History; Evolution & Systematics; Population Genetics; Terrestrial Ecology; Aquatic Ecology; & Behavior & Sociobiology. Illustrations.
Phylogenetic Inference, Selection Theory, and History of Science
Seminal papers by A. W. F. Edwards, published together for the first time with commentaries from leading experts to contextualise his contribution.
Matrix Inequalities for Iterative Systems
The book reviews inequalities for weighted entry sums of matrix powers. Applications range from mathematics and CS to pure sciences. It unifies and generalizes several results for products and powers of sesquilinear forms derived from powers of Hermitian, positive-semidefinite, as well as nonnegative matrices. It shows that some inequalities are valid only in specific cases. How to translate the Hermitian matrix results into results for alternating powers of general rectangular matrices? Inequalities that compare the powers of the row and column sums to the row and column sums of the matrix powers are refined for nonnegative matrices. Lastly, eigenvalue bounds and derive results for iterated kernels are improved.
Mathematical and Statistical Developments of Evolutionary Theory
Mathematical and statistical approaches to evolutionary theory are numerous. The NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) held at the Universite de Montreal, Montreal, August 3-21, 1987, was an opportunity to review most of the classical approaches and to study the more recent developments. The participation of theoretical biologists and geneticists as well as applied mathematicians and statisticians made possible exchanges of ideas between students and scholars having different views on the subject. These Proceedings contain the lecture notes of seven (7) of the eleven (11) series of lectures that were given. ESS (Evolutionarily Stable Stragety) theory is considered from many perspectives, from ...
