The instability of the autogen.
The autogen theory has sought to provide a mechanism for the rapid origin of a self-replicating chemical system from short, random oligomers. The autogen is considered in terms of hypercycle theory, and its dynamic behavior is subjected to fixed point analysis. It is shown that the components of the autogen are incapable of stable coexistence.
