A Necessary Condition for Coexistence of Autocatalytic Replicators in a Prebiotic Environment
A necessary, but not sufficient, mathematical condition for the coexistence of short replicating species is presented here. The mathematical condition is obtained for a prebiotic environment, simulated as a fed-batch reactor, which combines monomer recycling, variable reaction order and a fixed mono...
