Criterion of unlimited growth of critical multidimensional stochastic models

Probability 2016-04-08 v3 Populations and Evolution

Abstract

We give a criterion for unlimited growth with positive probability for a large class of multidimensional stochastic models. As a by-product, we recover the necessary and sufficient conditions for recurrence and transience for critical multitype Galton-Watson with immigration processes. We also significantly improve some results on multitype size-dependent Galton-Watson processes.
