Does a population with the highest turnover coefficient win competition?

open access: yes, 2017
We consider a discrete time competition model. Populations compete for common limited resources but they have different fertilities and mortalities rates. We compare dynamical properties of this model with its continuous counterpart.

Spreading Speed, Traveling Waves, and Minimal Domain Size in\ud Impulsive Reaction-diffusion Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
How growth, mortality, and dispersal in a species affect the species’ spread and persistence constitutes a central problem in spatial ecology. We propose impulsive reaction-diffusion equation models for species with distinct reproductive and dispersal ...

On the weakly competitive case in a two-species chemotaxis model

open access: yes, 2016
In this article we investigate a parabolic-parabolic-elliptic two-species chemotaxis system with weak competition and show global asymptotic stability of the coexistence steady state under a smallness condition on the chemotactic strengths, which seems ...

Coinvasion-Coexistence Traveling Wave Solutions of an Integro-Difference Competition System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper is concerned with the traveling wave solutions of an integro-difference competition system, of which the purpose is to model the coinvasion-coexistence process of two competitors with age structure.

Limit theorems for supercritical age-dependent branching processes with neutral immigration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We consider a branching process with Poissonian immigration where individuals have inheritable types. At rate theta, new individuals singly enter the total population and start a new population which evolves like a supercritical, homogeneous, binary ...

Local approximation of a metapopulation's equilibrium

open access: yes, 2018
We consider the approximation of the equilibrium of a metapopulation model, in which a finite number of patches are randomly distributed over a bounded subset $\Omega$ of Euclidean space.

Spreading speeds and traveling waves for non-cooperative reaction-diffusion systems

open access: yes, 2010
Much has been studied on the spreading speed and traveling wave solutions for cooperative reaction-diffusion systems. In this paper, we shall establish the spreading speed for a large class of non-cooperative reaction-diffusion systems and characterize ...

Quasi-stationary distribution for multi-dimensional birth and death processes conditioned to survival of all coordinates

open access: yes, 2015
This article studies the quasi-stationary behaviour of multidimensional birth and death processes, modeling the interaction between several species, absorbed when one of the coordinates hits 0.

Splitting trees stopped when the first clock rings and Vervaat's transformation

open access: yes, 2011
We consider a branching population where individuals have i.i.d.\ life lengths (not necessarily exponential) and constant birth rate. We let $N_t$ denote the population size at time $t$. %(called homogeneous, binary Crump--Mode--Jagers process).

The peripatric coalescent

open access: yes, 2013
We consider a dynamic metapopulation involving one large population of size N surrounded by colonies of size \varepsilon_NN, usually called peripheral isolates in ecology, where N\to\infty and \varepsilon_N\to 0 in such a way that \varepsilon_NN\to\infty.
