Abstract
The aim of this book is to motivate mathematicians with basic interests in fields such as functional analysis or operator semigroup theory and probability to turn attention to applied problems, which require such higher-order mathematical tools. In other words, we would like to show that a mathematical view “from above” on applied problems in population genetics leads not only to interesting “mathematical games” but also to important insights which may be of value to population genetics.
