OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Responsive dormancy in the Parabolic Anderson Model (PAM)
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.
