Extinction times in Multitype Markov Branching Processes
In this paper, a distributional approximation to the time to extinction in a subcritical continuous-time Markov branching process is derived. A limit theorem for this distribution is established and the error in the approximation is quantified. The accuracy of the approximation is illustrated in an epidemiological example. Since Markov branching processes serve as approximations to nonlinear ep...
متن کاملOn the extinction of Continuous State Branching Processes with catastrophes
We consider continuous state branching processes (CSBP’s) with additional multiplicative jumps modeling dramatic events in a random environment. These jumps are described by a Lévy process with bounded variation paths. We construct the associated class of processes as the unique solution of a stochastic differential equation. The quenched branching property of the process allows us to derive qu...
متن کاملLocal Extinction versus Local Exponential Growth for Spatial Branching Processes
Let X be either the branching diffusion corresponding to the operator Lu + β(u2 − u) on D ⊆ Rd [where β(x) ≥ 0 and β ≡ 0 is bounded from above] or the superprocess corresponding to the operator Lu + βu − αu2 on D ⊆ Rd (with α > 0 and β is bounded from above but no restriction on its sign). Let λc denote the generalized principal eigenvalue for the operator L + β on D. We prove the following dic...
متن کاملBranching Processes
Galton-Watson processes were introduced by Francis Galton in 1889 as a simple mathematical model for the propagation of family names. They were reinvented by Leo Szilard in the late 1930s as models for the proliferation of free neutrons in a nuclear fission reaction. Generalizations of the extinction probability formulas that we shall derive below played a role in the calculation of the critica...
متن کاملBranching Processes
The study of branching processes began in the 1840s with Irénée-Jules Bienaymé, a probabilist and statistician, and was advanced in the 1870s with the work of Reverend Henry William Watson, a clergyman and mathematician, and Francis Galton, a biometrician. In 1873, Galton sent a problem to the Educational Times regarding the survival of family names. When he did not receive a satisfactory answe...
