The environment can be seen as a 'parameterized' version of Yao & Chen(2012). We show that with probability one, the contact process at the critical value dies out. As a corollary, we can get that with probability one, the complete convergence theorem holds for all positive parameters. This is a generalization of the known results for the classical contact process in the half space case.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-02-27T07:19:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60K35" ], "keywords": [ "phase transition", "complete convergence theorem holds", "static random environment", "half space case", "basic contact process" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
