The limit measure can be characterized via a certain martingale expressed by an invariant function for the process killed upon hitting zero.

The changes of traits are described by jump processes, and the dynamics can be approximated in large population by a non-linear PDE with a non-local mutation operator. Using the fact that this PDE admits a non-trivial stationary solution, we can approximate the non-linear stochastic population process by a linear birth-death process where the interactions are frozen, as long as the population remains close to this equilibrium. This allows us to derive, when the population is large, the equation satisfied by the ancestral lineage of an individual uniformly sampled at a fixed time $T$, which is the path constituted of the traits of the ancestors of this individual in past times $tleq T$. This process is a time inhomogeneous Markov process, but we show that the time reversal of this process possesses a very simple structure (e.g. time-homogeneous and independent of $T$). This extends recent results where the authors studied a similar model with a Laplacian operator but where the methods essentially relied on the Gaussian nature of the mutations.","PeriodicalId":50538,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Probability","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41947489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The transition probabilities are defined in terms of pair ferromagnetic Ising-type Hamiltonians with nearest neighbor interaction $J$, depending on an additional parameter $q$, measuring the tendency of the system to remain locally in the same state. Odd times and even times have different transition probabilities. We compute the stationary measure of the shaken dynamics and we investigate its relation with the Gibbs measure for the 3$d$ Ising model. It turns out that the two parameters $J$ and $q$ tune the geometry of the underlying lattice. We conjecture the existence of unique line of critical points in $J-q$ plane. By a judicious use of perturbative methods we delimit the region where such curve must lie and we perform numerical simulation to determine it. Our method allows us to find in a unified way the critical values of $J$ for Ising model with first neighbors interaction, defined on a whole class of lattices, intermediate between the two-dimensional hexagonal and the three-dimensional cubic one, such as, for example, the tetrahedral lattice. Finally we estimate the critical exponents of the magnetic susceptibility and show that our model captures a dimensional transition in the geometry of the system at $q = 0$.","PeriodicalId":50538,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Probability","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46057265","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
