Minimisation of extinction probabilities in reproducing populations

Theoretical Population Biology, 1980
Abstract In an attempt to explain variability in clutch size among laying birds of the same species, models are considered in which birds have to choose a randomised strategy for clutch size in the face of random environments in order to minimise a probability of extinction.

Goodness of Fit of Probability Distributions for Sightings as Species Approach Extinction

Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2009
Estimating the probability that a species is extinct and the timing of extinctions is useful in biological fields ranging from paleoecology to conservation biology. Various statistical methods have been introduced to infer the time of extinction and extinction probability from a series of individual sightings.

Extinction Probabilities with Extra-Poisson Variation

2013
In the simplest example of EPV adopted in our HIV infection model, there is one subtlety about extinction probabilities that needs to be addressed. It is worthwhile estimating the extinction probability of a continuous-time branching process with general offspring distribution.

Extinction Probabilities for Branching Processes Bounded from Below

Theory of Probability & Its Applications, 1996
Let \(\xi(t)\) be a branching process bounded from below with parameter \(m\) associated to a Galton-Watson process \(\mu(t)\) with generating function \(h(s)\) and discrete time \(t\), i.e. \(\xi(t)=\mu(t)\), if \(\min_{0\leq u\leq t}\mu(u)>m\); \(\xi(t)=\mu(v)\), if \(\exists v:0\leq v\leq t\), \(\min_{0\leq u m\), \(u(v)\leq m\). All \(r\) \((\leq m)

The Extinction Probability in a Critical Branching Process

1978
Abstract : Let Z(t) be the number of cells alive at t in a critical age- dependent Bellman-Harris process with lifetime distribution G(t) and offspring generating function h(s). A simplified proof that tP(Z(t) > 0) gives b > 0, a specified constant, is given.
