Birth and death process

Japanese: 出生死滅過程 - しゅっせいしめつかてい(英語表記)birth and death process
Birth and death process
It is a type of Markov process that takes natural numbers and models the change in the population of a biological population over time, with the population increasing due to the birth of new individuals and decreasing due to death. Let the population size at time t be X ( t ), and let the probability of an increase from n to 1 during the infinitesimal time interval ( t , t + h ) be λnh + o ( h ), the probability of a decrease from n to n -1 be μnh + o ( h ) ( λn , μn are non-negative constants), and the probability of a change greater than 1 be o ( h ). If we write Pn ( t ) to be the probability of being in state n at time t , then we get Pn ' ( t )=-( λn + μn ) Pn ( t ) + λn - 1 Pn - 1 ( t ) + μn +1 Pn + 1 ( t ) P0 ' ( t )=- λ0 P0 ( t ) + μ1 P1 ( t ) ( n ≧1).
