We present numerical results based on a simplified ecological system in evolution, showing features of extinction similar to that claimed for the biosystem on Earth. In the model each species consists of a population in interaction with the…

We present a model for evolution and extinction in large ecosystems. The model incorporates the effects of interactions between species and the influences of abiotic environmental factors. We study the properties of the model by approximate…

In this paper we study the metastability of the contact process on a random regular graph. We show that the extinction time of the contact process, when initialized so that all vertices are infected at time 0, grows exponentially with the…

We consider the contact process with infection rate $\lambda$ on $\mathbb{T}_n^d$, the $d$-ary tree of height $n$. We study the extinction time $\tau_{\mathbb{T}_n^d}$, that is, the random time it takes for the infection to disappear when…

In this note, we introduce a unified analytic framework that connects simple varieties of trees, Bienayme-Galton-Watson processes and Khinchin families. Using Lagrange's inversion formula, we derive new coefficient-based expressions for…

In this expository style of writing I will give an introduction of Gr\"{o}bner bases and compute it for some algebras and then show how to use it to compute Hilbert series for algebras from chains.

An approach to compatibility analysis of systems of discrete relations is proposed. Unlike the Groebner basis technique, the proposed scheme is not based on the polynomial ring structure. It uses more primitive set-theoretic and topological…

We develop the theory of Gr\"obner bases for ideals in a polynomial ring with countably infinite variables over a field. As an application we reconstruct some of the one-one correspondences among various sets of partitions by using division…

In this paper, we establish the necessary and sufficient criterion for the contact process on Galton-Watson trees (resp. random graphs) to exhibit the phase of extinction (resp. short survival). We prove that the survival threshold…

We study the contact process on the configuration model with a power law degree distribution, when the exponent is smaller than or equal to two. We prove that the extinction time grows exponentially fast with the size of the graph and prove…

We present a method for obtaining the likelihood function of distance and extinction to a star given its photometry. The other properties of the star (its mass, age, metallicity and so on) are marginalised assuming a simple Galaxy model. We…
