Book excerpt: The goal of this work is to propose a finite population counterpart to Eigen's model, which incorporates stochastic effects. The author considers a Moran model describing the evolution of a population of size of chromosomes of length over an alphabet of cardinality . The mutation probability per locus is . He deals only with the sharp peak landscape: the replication rate is for the master sequence and for the other sequences. He studies the equilibrium distribution of the process in the regime where
