Quasi-stationary distributions for randomly perturbed dynamical systems

Résumé

We analyze quasi-stationary distributions \μ ε \ ε\textgreater0 of a family of Markov chains \X ε \ ε\textgreater0 that are random perturbations of a bounded, continuous map F:M→M , where M is a closed subset of R k . Consistent with many models in biology, these Markov chains have a closed absorbing set M 0 ⊂M such that F(M 0 )=M 0 and F(M∖M 0 )=M∖M 0 . Under some large deviations assumptions on the random perturbations, we show that, if there exists a positive attractor for F (i.e., an attractor for F in M∖M 0 ), then the weak* limit points of μ ε are supported by the positive attractors of F . To illustrate the broad applicability of these results, we apply them to nonlinear branching process models of metapopulations, competing species, host-parasitoid interactions and evolutionary games.
