Systems with absorbing configurations usually lead to a unique stationary probability measure called quasi stationary state (QSS) defined with respect to the survived samples. We show that the birth death diffusion (BBD) processes exhibit universal phases and phase transitions when the birth and death rates depend on the instantaneous particle density and their time scales are exponentially separated from the diffusion rates. In absence of birth, these models exhibit non-unique QSSs and lead to an absorbing phase transition (APT) at some critical nonzero death rate; the usual notion of universality is broken as the critical exponents of APT here depend on the initial density distribution.

We use methods from combinatorics and algebraic statistics to study analogues of birth-and-death processes that have as their state space a finite subset of the $m$-dimensional lattice and for which the $m$ matrices that record the transition probabilities in each of the lattice directions commute pairwise. One reason such processes are of interest is that the transition matrix is straightforward to diagonalize, and hence it is easy to compute $n$ step transition probabilities. The set of commuting birth-and-death processes decomposes as a union of toric varieties, with the main component being the closure of all processes whose nearest neighbor transition probabilities are positive. We exhibit an explicit monomial parametrization for this main component, and we explore the boundary components using primary decomposition.
We introduce a class of birth-and-death Polya urns, which allow for both sampling and removal of observations governed by an auxiliary inhomogeneous Bernoulli process, and investigate the asymptotic behaviour of the induced allelic partitions. By exploiting some embedded models, we show that the asymptotic regimes exhibit a phase transition from partitions with almost surely infinitely many blocks and independent counts, to stationary partitions with a random number of blocks. The first regime corresponds to limits of Ewens-type partitions and includes a result of Arratia, Barbour and Tavare (1992) as a special case. We identify the invariant and reversible measure in the second regime, which preserves asymptotically the dependence between counts, and is shown to be a mixture of Ewens sampling formulas, with a tilted Negative Binomial mixing distribution on the sample size.
The dynamics of populations is frequently subject to intrinsic noise. At the same time unknown interaction networks or rate constants can present quenched uncertainty. Existing approaches often involve repeated sampling of the quenched disorder and then running the stochastic birth-death dynamics on these samples. In this paper we take a different view, and formulate an effective jump process, representative of the ensemble of quenched interactions as a whole. Using evolutionary games with random payoff matrices as an example, we develop an algorithm to simulate this process, and we discuss diffusion approximations in the limit of weak intrinsic noise.
We study the properties of the ``Rigid Laplacian operator, that is we consider solutions of the Laplacian equation in the presence of fixed truncation errors. The dynamics of convergence to the correct analytical solution displays the presence of a metastable set of numerical solutions, whose presence can be related to granularity. We provide some scaling analysis in order to determine the value of the exponents characterizing the process. We believe that this prototype model is also suitable to provide an explanation of the widespread presence of power-law in social and economic system where information and decision diffuse, with errors and delay from agent to agent.
We examine the Jarzynski equality for a quenching process across the critical point of second-order phase transitions, where absolute irreversibility and the effect of finite-sampling of the initial equilibrium distribution arise on an equal footing. We consider the Ising model as a prototypical example for spontaneous symmetry breaking and take into account the finite sampling issue by introducing a tolerance parameter. For a given tolerance parameter, the deviation from the Jarzynski equality depends onthe reduced coupling constant and the system size. In this work, we show that the deviation from the Jarzynski equality exhibits a universal scaling behavior inherited from the critical scaling laws of second-order phase transitions.
