This paper investigates the long-term behavior of an interacting particle system of interest in the hot topic of evolutionary game theory. Each site of the $d$-dimensional integer lattice is occupied by a player who is characterized by one of two possible strategies. Following the traditional modeling approach of spatial games, the configuration is turned into a payoff landscape that assigns a payoff to each player based on her strategy and the strategy of her neighbors. The payoff is then interpreted as a fitness, by having each player independently update their strategy at rate one by mimicking their neighbor with the largest payoff. With these rules, the mean-field approximation of the spatial game exhibits the same asymptotic behavior as the popular replicator equation. Except for a coexistence result that shows an agreement between the process and the mean-field model, our analysis reveals that the two models strongly disagree in many aspects, showing in particular that the presence of a spatial structure in the form of local interactions plays a key role. More precisely, in the parameter region where both strategies are evolutionary stable in the replicator equation, in the spatial model either one strategy wins or the system fixates to a configuration where both strategies are present. In addition, while defection is evolutionary stable for the prisoners dilemma game in the replicator equation, space favors cooperation in our model.

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 probabi lities 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.
A strong negative dependence property for measures on {0,1}^n - stability - was recently developed in [5], by considering the zero set of the probability generating function. We extend this property to the more general setting of reaction-diffusion p rocesses and collections of independent Markov chains. In one dimension the generalized stability property is now independently interesting, and we characterize the birth-death chains preserving it.
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 exp loiting 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.
We consider stochastic UL and LU block factorizations of the one-step transition probability matrix for a discrete-time quasi-birth-and-death process, namely a stochastic block tridiagonal matrix. The simpler case of random walks with only nearest ne ighbors transitions gives a unique LU factorization and a one-parameter family of factorizations in the UL case. The block structure considered here yields many more possible factorizations resulting in a much enlarged class of potential applications. By reversing the order of the factors (also known as a Darboux transformation) we get new families of quasi-birth-and-death processes where it is possible to identify the matrix-valued spectral measures in terms of a Geronimus (UL) or a Christoffel (LU) transformation of the original one. We apply our results to one example going with matrix-valued Jacobi polynomials arising in group representation theory. We also give urn models for some particular cases.

The cosmic stellar birth rate can be measured by standard astronomical techniques. It can also be probed via the cosmic stellar death rate, though until recently, this was much less precise. However, recent results based on measured supernova rates, and importantly, also on the attendant diffuse fluxes of neutrinos and gamma rays, have become competitive, and a concordant history of stellar birth and death is emerging. The neutrino flux from all past core-collapse supernovae, while faint, is realistically within reach of detection in Super-Kamiokande, and a useful limit has already been set. I will discuss predictions for this flux, the prospects for neutrino detection, the implications for understanding core-collapse supernovae, and a new limit on the contribution of type-Ia supernovae to the diffuse gamma-ray background.
