Branching random walks on trees
Neal Madras,Rinaldo B. Schinazi +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define a branching random walk on a tree, where each site has d ⩾3 neighbors, and show that the process starting with one particle has positive probability of surviving forever (respectively, of having a fixed site occupied at arbitrarily large times).
Book
Classical and spatial stochastic processes
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present three fundamental properties of discrete time Markov chains: 1.1 Discrete Time Markov Chains, 2.2 Reversible measures, 3.3 Convergence to a stationary distribution, 4.4 The finite case, 5.6 Passage times, 6.7 Absorption probabilities for martingales, 7.8 Random walks, and 8.9 Proof of Theorem III.5.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dependent random graphs and spatial epidemics
TL;DR: In this article, the authors extend certain exponential decay results of subcritical percolation to a class of locally dependent random graphs, introduced by Kuulasmaa as models for spatial epidemics.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the role of social clusters in the transmission of infectious diseases
TL;DR: It is shown that when the infection rate from outside the cluster is low (this is presumably the case for tuberculosis and HIV) then an epidemic is possible only if the typical social cluster and the within infection rate are large enough.
Book ChapterDOI
Estimation and Hypothesis Testing
TL;DR: In a poll of 100 randomly selected voters as mentioned in this paper, 35 expressed support for initiative A. How does one estimate the proportion of voters in the whole population that supports initiative A based on the sample of 100? How much confidence do we have on our estimate?
