Coagulation-Fragmentation Model for Animal Group-Size Statistics
We study coagulation-fragmentation equations inspired by a simple model proposed in fisheries science to explain data for the size distribution of schools of pelagic fish. Although the equations lack detailed balance and admit no H-theorem, we are able to develop a rather complete description of equilibrium profiles and large-time behavior, based on recent developments in complex function theor...
متن کاملA Pure Jump Markov Process with a Random Singularity Spectrum
We construct a non-decreasing pure jump Markov process, whose jump measure heavily depends on the values taken by the process. We determine the singularity spectrum of this process, which turns out to be random and to depend locally on the values taken by the process. The result relies on fine properties of the distribution of Poisson point processes and on ubiquity theorems.

متن کاملUnderstanding Animal Group-Size Distributions
One of the most striking aspects of animal groups is their remarkable variation in size, both within and between species. While a number of mechanistic models have been proposed to explain this variation, there are few comprehensive datasets against which these models have been tested. In particular, we only vaguely understand how environmental factors and behavioral activities affect group-siz...
متن کاملMarkov jump process approximation of the stochastic Burgers equation ∗
Stochastics and Dynamics, 4(2004),245–264. We consider the stochastic Burgers equation ∂ ∂t ψ(t, r) = ∆ψ(t, r) +∇ψ(t, r) + √ γψ(t, r)η(t, r) (1) with periodic boundary conditions, where t ≥ 0, r ∈ [0, 1], and η is some spacetime white noise. A certain Markov jump process is constructed to approximate a solution of this equation.
