We consider a stochastic heat equation of the type, $\partial_t u = \partial^2_x u + \sigma(u)\dot{W}$ on $(0\,,\infty)\times[-1\,,1]$ with periodic boundary conditions and on-degenerate positive initial data, where $\sigma:\mathbb{R}…
We study stochastic extinction for a class of Markov processes motivated by models in ecology and epidemiology. Extinction is often characterized by a boundedness condition and a condition on boundary Lyapunov exponents (invasion rates).…
We investigate extinction dynamics in the paradigmatic model of two competing species A and B that reproduce (A-->2A, B-->2B), self-regulate by annihilation (2A-->0, 2B-->0), and compete (A+B-->A, A+B-->B). For a finite system that is in…

We consider nonlinear parabolic SPDEs of the form $\partial_t u=-(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2} u + b(u) +\sigma(u)\dot w$, where$\dot w$ denotes space-time white noise. The functions $b$ and $\sigma$ are both locally Lipschitz continuous. Under some…

Certain Markov processes, or deterministic evolution equations, have the property that they are dual to a stochastic process that exhibits extinction versus unbounded growth, i.e., the total mass in such a process either becomes zero, or…
