title: A mathematical model accounting for the organization in multiplets of the genetic code.
abstract: A model using suitable mathematical operators in the crystal basis model of the genetic code is presented. This model retains a requirement for stability of the genetic code against misreading or translation errors. The main features (including number of encoded amino-acids, nucleotide content, and synonymous codons multiplet dimension) are described for mitochondrial and eukaryotic genetic codes.
