Extinction In Lower Hessenberg Branching Processes With Countably Many Types

We consider a class of branching processes with countably many types which we refer to as Lower Hessenberg branching processes. These are multitype Galton-Watson processes with typeset X = {0, 1, 2,...}, in which individuals of type i may give birth to off ...

Functional Central Limit Theorem for the Interface of the Symmetric Multitype Contact Process

Thomas Mountford, Daniel Rodrigues Valesin

We study the interface of the symmetric multitype contact process on Z. In this process, each site of Z is either empty or occupied by an individual of one of two species. Each individual dies with rate 1 and attempts to give birth with rate 2R lambda; the ...
