- Fleming-Viot process
The term Fleming-Viot process refers to a particular subset of Markov processes as defined in the 1979 paper, "Some measure-valued Markov processes in population genetics theory", by Wendell H. Fleming and Michel Viot.
The Fleming-Viot process, sometimes abbreviated to F-V processes, have proved to be important to the development of a mathematical basis for the theories behind allele drift.
