The Influence of Symmetry on the Probability of Assembly Pathways for Icosahedral Viral Shells
This paper motivates and sets up the mathematical framework for a new program of investigation: to isolate and clarify the precise influence of symmetry on the probability space of assembly pathways that successfully lead to icosahedral viral shells. Several tractable open questions are posed. Besid...
