A Multitype Contact Process with Frozen Sites: a Spatial Model of Allelopathy
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we introduce a generalization of the two-color multitype contact process intended to mimic a biological process called allelopathy. To be precise, we have two types of particle. Particles of each type give birth to particles of the same type, and die at rate 1. When a particle of type 1 dies, it gives way to a frozen site that blocks particles of type 2 for an exponentially distributed amount of time. Specifically, we investigate in detail the phase transitions and the duality properties of the interacting particle system.

The Multitype Contact Process with Frozen States or Allelopathy Model
The aim of this paper is to study a generalization of the two colors multitype contact process intended to mimic an example of interspecific competition called allelopathy. Roughly speaking, the strategy of the first species is to inhibit the growth of the second one by freezing the sites it has colonized. Our main objective is to prove that this spatial model exhibits some phase transitions co...
متن کاملTwo-Scale Multitype Contact Process: Coexistence in Spatially Explicit Metapopulations∗
It is known from past research that the limiting behavior of the contact process strongly depends upon the geometry of the graph on which particles evolve: while the contact process on regular lattices exhibits only two phases, the process on homogeneous trees exhibits an intermediate phase of weak survival. Similarly, we prove that the geometry of the interaction network can drastically affect...
متن کاملCentral Limit Theorem in Multitype Branching Random Walk
A discrete time multitype (p-type) branching random walk on the real line R is considered. The positions of the j-type individuals in the n-th generation form a point process. The asymptotic behavior of these point processes, when the generation size tends to infinity, is studied. The central limit theorem is proved.
متن کاملAnalysis of Hierarchical Bayesian Models for Large Space Time Data of the Housing Prices in Tehran
Housing price data is correlated to their location in different neighborhoods and their correlation is type of spatial (location). The price of housing is varius in different months, so they also have a time correlation. Spatio-temporal models are used to analyze this type of the data. An important purpose of reviewing this type of the data is to fit a suitable model for the spatial-temporal an...
متن کاملSpatial Regression in the Presence of Misaligned data
In this paper, four approaches are presented to the problem of fitting a linear regression model in the presence of spatially misaligned data. These approaches are plug-in method, simulation, regression calibration and maximum likelihood. In the first two approaches, with modeling the correlation between the explanatory variable, prediction of explanatory variable is determined at sites...
