OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

We study a two-type branching random walk in a random environment modeling dormancy and activity. Individuals switch states in response to a moving trap, modeled by a symmetric random walk. Using the Feynman-Kac formula and the parabolic Anderson model, we quantify how responsive dormancy influences long-term survival and population growth.
