Abstract

An approach to describe the emergence of the primordial evolving system is presented. Dynamics of polymerization/depolymerization of some spatially distributed pre-biological structures is analyzed and two phases of system development are supposed. The external factors induce polymerization of organic monomers in the first phase and depolymerization in the second one, both processes are accompanied with diffuse mixing of products of reactions. During the mixing, the aggregation of polymers and disintegration of aggregates are considered to be a result of specific interconnections between polymers. Dynamic equations of system are presented.
