We present a theoretical framework for biological evolution with the intention of giving precise mathematical definitions of some concepts in evolutionary biology such as fitness, evolutionary pressure, specialization and natural selection. In this framework, such concepts are identified with well-known mathematical terms within the theory of dynamical systems. We also discuss some more general implications in evolution; for instance, the fact that our model naturally exhibits a frequency spectrum of the type 1/f for low frequencies of evolutionary events.
我们提出了一个生物进化的理论框架,旨在对进化生物学中的一些概念给出精确的数学定义,如适应性、进化压力、专业化和自然选择。在这个框架中,这些概念与动力系统理论中的一些著名数学术语相对应。我们还讨论了进化中一些更普遍的含义;例如,我们的模型自然地呈现出进化事件低频时的1/f类型频谱这一事实。
