Realistic modeling of ecological population dynamics requires spatially explicit descriptions that can take into account spatial heterogeneity as well as long-distance dispersal. Here, we present Monte Carlo simulations and numerical…
A stochastic comparison result that makes progress towards understanding the classical multitype contact process with unequal death rates is given. It has long been conjectured that the particle type with the largest birth to death rate…
The contact process on dynamic edges (CPDE) is a contact process evolving on a dynamic environment given by a dynamical percolation on the edges of Z d\,: each edge updates its state to open or closed with respective rates vp and v(1 -p).…
The two-species symbiotic contact process (2SCP) is a stochastic process where each vertex of a graph may be vacant or host at most one individual of each species. Vertices with both species have a reduced death rate, representing a…
We propose an upwind finite volume method for a system of two kinetic equations in one dimension that are coupled through nonlocal interaction terms. These cross-interaction systems were recently obtained as the mean-field limit of a…
We consider a branching process with Poissonian immigration where individuals have inheritable types. At rate theta, new individuals singly enter the total population and start a new population which evolves like a supercritical,…
Controlled environment agriculture (CEA) is used for efficient food production. Efficiency can be increased further by interconnecting different CEA systems (e.g. plants and insect larvae or fish and larvae), using products and by-products…
We consider the contact process with infection rate $\lambda$ on a random $(d+1)$-regular graph with $n$ vertices, $G_n$. We study the extinction time $\tau_{G_n}$ (that is, the random amount of time until the infection disappears) as $n$…
The contact process with diffusion (PCPD) defined by the binary reactions 2 B -> 3 B, 2 B -> 0 and diffusive particle spreading exhibits an unusual active to absorbing phase transition whose universality class has long been disputed.…
Superfluidity in Fermi systems is not destroyed by a flow exceeding the Landau velocity threshold. The overcritical state acquires normal component even at zero temperature. We explore peculiar hydrodynamics of this system and discover two…
We study the contact process on a random bipartite connection hypergraph generated from two Poisson point processes, with mark-dependent connection thresholds. For asymmetric infection rates and asymmetric power law tail decays of the two…
The total momentum of $N$ interacting bosons or fermions in a cube equipped with periodic boundary conditions is a conserved quantity. Its eigenvalues follow a probability distribution, determined by the thermal equilibrium state. While in…
In this paper we introduce a contact process on a dynamical long range percolation (CPDLP) defined on a complete graph $(V,\mathcal{E})$. A dynamical long range percolation is a Feller process defined on the edge set $\mathcal{E}$, which…
We consider an exclusion process on a ring in which a particle hops to an empty neighbouring site with a rate that depends on the number of vacancies $n$ in front of it. In the steady state, using the well known mapping of this model to the…
In this paper we are concerned with contact process with random recovery rates on open clusters of bond percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. Let $\xi$ be a positive random variable, then we assigned i. i. d. copies of $\xi$ on the vertices as the…
We use interacting particle systems to investigate survival and extinction of a species with colonies located on each site of $\mathbb {Z}^d$. In each of the four models studied, an individual in a local population can reproduce, die or…
Multi-type birth-death processes underlie approaches for inferring evolutionary dynamics from phylogenetic trees across biological scales, ranging from deep-time species macroevolution to rapid viral evolution and somatic cellular…
We introduce a model of biological evolution where species evolve in response to biotic interactions and a fluctuating environmental stress. The species may either become extinct or mutate to acquire a new fitness value when the effective…
The study of crossing probabilities - i.e. probabilities of existence of paths crossing rectangles - has been at the heart of the theory of two-dimensional percolation since its beginning. They may be used to prove a number of results on…
This thesis investigates critical phenomena and equilibrium states in various stochastic models through three interconnected studies. In the first chapter, we analyze the Activated Random Walk model on a one-dimensional ring in the…
