The idea of adaptive walks on fitness landscapes as a means of studying evolutionary
processes on large time scales is extended to fitness landscapes that are slowly changing …

Evolution in changing environments is an important, but little studied aspect of the theory of
evolution. The idea of adaptive walks in fitness landscapes has triggered a vast amount of …

The fitness landscape metaphor has been central in our way of thinking about adaptation. In
this scenario, adaptive walks are idealized dynamics that mimic the uphill movement of an …

Fitness landscapes are genotype to fitness mappings commonly used in evolutionary
biology and computer science which are closely related to spin glass models. In this paper …

Kaufman's NK model for genetic evolution and adaption is analyzed for for K= N-1. In this
case it describes adaptive walks on random fitness landscapes, and its dynamics is …

Kauffman's NK-model is a paradigmatic example of a class of stochastic models of genotypic
fitness landscapes that aim to capture generic features of epistatic interactions in multilocus …

We propose a model for studying the statistical properties of adaptive walks on correlated
fitness landscapes which are established in genotype spaces of complex structure. The …

We consider the evolutionary trajectories traced out by an infinite population undergoing
mutation–selection dynamics in static, uncorrelated random fitness landscapes. Starting …

The properties of multi-peaked “fitness landscapes” have attracted attention in a wide variety
of fields, including evolutionary biology. However, relaively little attention has been paid to …

We examine properties of adaptive walks on uncorrelated (ie random) fitness landscapes
starting from moderately fit genotypes under strong selection weak mutation. As an …
