Extinction times for a birth-death process with weak competition
We consider a birth-death process with the birth rates iλ and death rates iμ+i(i−1)θ, where i is the current state of the process. A positive competition rate θ is assumed to be small. In the supercritical case when λ > μ this process can be viewed as a demographic model for a population with a high carrying capacity around λ−μ θ . The article reports in a self-contained manner on the asymptoti...
متن کاملExtinction times for a birth-death process with two phases.
Many populations have a negative impact on their habitat or upon other species in the environment if their numbers become too large. For this reason they are often subjected to some form of control. One common control regime is the reduction regime: when the population reaches a certain threshold it is controlled (for example culled) until it falls below a lower predefined level. The natural mo...
متن کاملExtinction times and moment closure in the stochastic logistic process.
We investigate the statistics of extinction times for an isolated population, with an initially modest number M of individuals, whose dynamics are controlled by a stochastic logistic process (SLP). The coefficient of variation in the extinction time V is found to have a maximum value when the death and birth rates are close in value. For large habitat size K we find that Vmax is of order K1/4 /...
متن کاملA novel existence and uniqueness theorem for solutions to FDEs driven by Lius process with weak Lipschitz coefficients
This paper we investigate the existence and uniqueness of solutions to fuzzydierential equations driven by Liu's process. For this, it is necessary to provideand prove a new existence and uniqueness theorem for fuzzy dierential equationsunder weak Lipschitz condition. Then the results allows us to considerand analyze solutions to a wide range of nonlinear fuzzy dierential equationsdriven by Liu...
متن کاملExtinction times in experimental populations.
Predicting population extinctions is a key element of quantitative conservation biology and population ecology. Although stochastic population theories have long been used to obtain theoretical distributions of population extinction times, model-based predictions have rarely been tested. Here I report results from a quantitative analysis of extinction time in 281 experimental populations of wat...
