Abstract:
Consider a continuous-time Markov process with transition rates matrix Q in the state space Λ ∪ {0}. In the associated Fleming-Viot process N particles evolve independently in Λ with transition rates matrix Q until one of them attempts to jump to state 0. At this moment the particle jumps to one of the positions of the other particles, chosen uniformly at random. When Λ is finite, we show that the empirical distribution of the particles at a fixed time converges as N → ∞ to the distribution of a single particle at the same time conditioned on not touching {0}. Furthermore, the empirical profile of the unique invariant measure for the Fleming-Viot process with N particles converges as N → ∞ to the unique quasistationary distribution of the one-particle motion. A key element of the approach is to show that the two-particle correlations are of order 1/N. © Applied Probability Trust 2011.
