In this paper, we consider two attractive stochastic spatial models in which each site can be in state 0, 1 or 2: Krones model in which 0${}={}$vacant, 1${}={}$juvenile and 2${}={}$a mature individual capable of giving birth, and the Staver-Levin forest model in which 0${}={}$grass, 1${}={}$sapling and 2${}={}$tree. Our first result shows that if $(0,0)$ is an unstable fixed point of the mean-field ODE for densities of 1s and 2s then when the range of interaction is large, there is positive probability of survival starting from a finite set and a stationary distribution in which all three types are present. The result we obtain in this way is asymptotically sharp for Krones model. However, in the Staver-Levin forest model, if $(0,0)$ is attracting then there may also be another stable fixed point for the ODE, and in some of these cases there is a nontrivial stationary distribution.
Using a description of the Levin-Wen model excitations in terms of Wilson lines, we compute the degeneracy of the energy levels for any input anyon theory and for any trivalent graph embedded on any (orientable) compact surface. This result allows on
We provide a uniform upper bound on the minimal drift so that the one-per-site frog model on a $d$-ary tree is recurrent. To do this, we introduce a subprocess that couples across trees with different degrees. Finding couplings for frog models on nes
The frog model is an infection process in which dormant particles begin moving and infecting others once they become infected. We show that on the rooted $d$-ary tree with particle density $Omega(d^2)$, the set of visited sites contains a linearly ex
The frog model is a branching random walk on a graph in which particles branch only at unvisited sites. Consider an initial particle density of $mu$ on the full $d$-ary tree of height $n$. If $mu= Omega( d^2)$, all of the vertices are visited in time
In work with a variety of co-authors, Staver and Levin have argued that savannah and forest coexist as alternative stable states with discontinuous changes in density of trees at the boundary. Here we formulate a nonhomogeneous spatial model of the c
