  bibo_abstract:
  - Empirical essays of fitness landscapes suggest that they may be rugged, that is
    having multiple fitness peaks. Such fitness landscapes, those that have multiple
    peaks, necessarily have special local structures, called reciprocal sign epistasis
    (Poelwijk et al. in J Theor Biol 272:141–144, 2011). Here, we investigate the
    quantitative relationship between the number of fitness peaks and the number of
    reciprocal sign epistatic interactions. Previously, it has been shown (Poelwijk
    et al. in J Theor Biol 272:141–144, 2011) that pairwise reciprocal sign epistasis
    is a necessary but not sufficient condition for the existence of multiple peaks.
    Applying discrete Morse theory, which to our knowledge has never been used in
    this context, we extend this result by giving the minimal number of reciprocal
    sign epistatic interactions required to create a given number of peaks.@eng
