Notes

  1. 1.

    This problem was firstly discussed in detail by S. Wright and R. A. Fisher. Its Markovian nature was pointed out by G. Malécot in: Sur un problèm de probabilités en chaine que pose la génétique, Comptes Rendus de l’Académie des Sciences, vol. 219, 1944, pp. 379–381. It is also presented at length in [9].
