Population Growth as a Nonlinear Stochastic Process
The evolution of the probability density of a biological population is described using nonlinear stochastic differential equations for the growth process and the related Fokker-Planck equations for the time-dependent probability densities. It is shown that the effect of the initial conditions disappears rapidly from the evolution of the mean of the process. But the behaviour of the variance dep...
متن کاملEconomic Growth as a Nonlinear and Discontinuous Process
Structural changes were the main focus of many studies in recent years. Changes which alter the socio-economic status of a nation from deprived and traditional nature to a developed and modern one. The main hypothesis of this study is that, the economic development does not occur through a regular flow of life (linear fashion), and without resilience, but it certainly needs to pass through a mo...
متن کاملNonlinear stochastic modeling of aphid population growth.
This paper develops a stochastic population size model for the black-margined pecan aphid. Prajneshu [Prajneshu, A nonlinear statistical model for aphid population growth. J. Indian Soc. Agric. Statist. 51 (1998), p. 73] proposes a novel nonlinear deterministic model for aphid abundance. The per capita death rate in his model is proportional to the cumulative population size, and the solution i...
متن کاملNucleation and droplet growth as a stochastic process
A stochastic differential equation is conjectured for approximately modelling the fluctuating size changes of an individual droplet in a fluid that is metastable with respect to nucleation of a new phase, in the limit when the critical droplet size is very large. The Freidlin-Wentzell formula for this S.D.E. is used to make estimates of large-deviation type for probabilities of such events as t...
