A general formalism is developed to construct a Markov chain model that converges to a one-dimensional map in the infinite population limit. Stochastic fluctuations are therefore internal to the system and not externally specified. For…

In this paper, we introduce a novel variant of the CBO method that incorporates jumps according to an $\alpha$-stable stochastic process in a kinetic framework. This extension gives rise to nonlocal stochastic effects, which improve the…
Gaussian white noise is frequently used to model fluctuations in physical systems. In Fokker-Planck theory, this leads to a vanishing probability density near the absorbing boundary of threshold models. Here we derive the boundary condition…
