The stability condition of the asymptotic distribution is (A(u
k
)hAi)p
k
(u) = 0,
i.e. either A(y
k
) =hAi= const (degeneracy of maxima) or p
k
(u) = 0 (all other
points). This supports our assumption of delta functions for the p
k
.
The position u
k
and the weight
k
of the quasi-species are given by A(u
k
) =
hAi= const and @A(u)=@uj

Let us compute the phase boundary for coexistence of three species for two kinds
of kernels: the exponential ( = 1) and the Gaussian ( = 2) one. The diusion
kernel can be derived by a simple reaction-diusion model, see Ref. [63].
We assume that the static tness V (u) of Eq. (15.27). Due to the symmetries
of the problem, we have the master quasi-species at u
0
= 0 and, symmetrically,
two satellite quasi-species at u =u
1
. Neglecting the mutual inuence of the two
marginal quasi-species, and considering that V

where u = u=R, r = r=R and b = b=J. We introduce the parameter G = r=b =
(J=R)=(b=r), that is the ratio of two quantities, the rst one related to the strength
of inter-species interactions (J=R) and the second to intra-species ones (b=r).
In the following we drop the tildes for convenience. Thus

For = 1 we have the coexistence condition
ln(G) = r1 + G :
The only parameters that satisfy these equations are G = 1 and r = 0, i.e. a at
landscape (b = 0) with innite range interaction (R =1). Since the coexistence
region reduces to a single point, it is suggested that = 1 is a marginal case. Thus
