Question: Consider a Birth-Death process with birth rates {λn} and death rates {µn}, where µ0= 0. Let Ti: the time, starting from state i, it takes for the process to enter i+1 for the first time, i ≥ 0. Assume that it is allowed to go below i before reaching i+1. For i > 0, we have two scenarios: • i -→ i +1, • i -→ i -1 Denote the random variable 1i, to be the Indicator Function, such...

This homework deals with a birth and death process with a birth rate λ.-lit 1 and m = a 1. A plot of λί and μί are shown below. Give a one-sentence description of how the birth rate is a function of the state of the process, i. Do another one sentence description of the death rate. Then, explain how the birth and death rates will interact. That is, for what states should the process tend to grow, and grow...
1. During stage 2 of the demographic transition model death rates and birth rates remain high death rates decline, while birth rates remain high the population is typically decreasing in size death and birth rates are increasing birth rates decline rapidly 2. The population in a country with a total fertility rate of 4, a low death rate and a immigration rate that equals the emigration rate is unpredictable increasing stable decreasing
A birth and death process with parameters λn = 0 for all n ≥ 0 and µn = µ for all n ≥ 1 is called a pure death process. Find Pij (t) for this process.
