Population and Density Dependent Branching Processes

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: The IMA Volumes in Mathematics and its Applications ((IMA,volume 84))

Abstract

This paper gives results on branching processes in which the offspring distribution is a function of the current population size or density. Some interesting phenomena in such processes which do not occur in the classical models are given.
