Phys. Rev. E 57, 1191–1192 (1998)Quantum mechanics versus classical probability in biological evolutionReceived 18 June 1997; published in the issue dated January 1998 We reconsider the mean-field Hamiltonian of the Ising quantum chain as a mutation-selection model of biological evolution. Direct calculation of its Perron-Frobenius eigenvector reveals a fundamental difference between the quantum-mechanical and probabilistic applications, and partially corrects previous results. © 1998 The American Physical Society URL:
