Cell contamination and branching process in random environment with immigration
We consider a branching model for a population of dividing cells infected by parasites. Each cell receives parasites by inheritance from its mother cell and independent contamination from outside the population. Parasites multiply randomly inside the cell and are shared randomly between the two daughter cells when the cell divides. The law of the number of parasites which contaminate a given ce...
متن کاملSudden Extinction of a Critical Branching Process in Random Environment
Abstract. Let T be the extinction moment of a critical branching process Z = (Zn, n ≥ 0) in a random environment specified by iid probability generating functions. We study the asymptotic behavior of the probability of extinction of the process Z at moment n → ∞, and show that if the logarithm of the (random) expectation of the offspring number belongs to the domain of attraction of a non-gauss...
متن کاملBranching processes in random environment die slowly
Let Zn,n = 0, 1, ..., be a branching process evolving in the random environment generated by a sequence of iid generating functions f0(s), f1(s), ..., and let S0 = 0, Sk = X1 + ...+Xk, k ≥ 1, be the associated random walk with Xi = log f ′ i−1(1), τ(m,n) be the left-most point of minimum of {Sk, k ≥ 0} on the interval [m,n], and T = min {k : Zk = 0}. Assuming that the associated random walk sat...
متن کاملSurvival of branching random walks in random environment
We study survival of nearest-neighbour branching random walks in random environment (BRWRE) on Z. A priori there are three different regimes of survival: global survival, local survival, and strong local survival. We show that local and strong local survival regimes coincide for BRWRE and that they can be characterized with the spectral radius of the first moment matrix of the process. These re...
متن کاملOn multidimensional branching random walks in random environment
We study branching random walks in random i.i.d. environment in Zd, d ≥ 1. For this model, the population size cannot decrease, and a natural definition of recurrence is introduced. We prove a dichotomy for recurrence/transience, depending only on the support of the environmental law. We give sufficient conditions for recurrence and for transience. In the recurrent case, we study the asymptotic...
