IUCN categories of threat (Endangered Vulnerable, Rare, Indeterminate, and others) are
widely used in 'Red lists' of endangered species and have become an important tool in …

Mathematical models are an important tool for neuroscientists. During the last 30 years
many papers have appeared on single neuron description and specifically on stochastic …

Memory is an indispensible element for a computer in addition to logic gates. In this Letter
we report a model of thermal memory. We demonstrate via numerical simulation that thermal …

A detailed study of the asymptotic behavior of the first-passage-time pdf and its moments is
carried out for an unrestricted conditional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process and for a constant …

The first-passage-time pdf through a time-dependent boundary for one-dimensional
diffusion processes is proved to satisfy a new Volterra integral equation of the second kind …

We model density-independent growth of an age-(or stage-) structured population,
assuming that mortality and reproductive rates fluctuate as stationary time series. Analytical …

Optimal harvesting theories based on the concept of maximum sustained yield assume a
stationary distribution of population size, ignoring that extinction is the eventual fate of all …

Interspike interval (ISI) distributions of cortical neurons exhibit a range of different shapes.
Wide ISI distributions are believed to stem from a balance of excitatory and inhibitory inputs …

Choice reaction time (RT) experiments are an invaluable tool in psychology and
neuroscience. A common assumption is that the total choice response time is the sum of a …

Diffusion processes have been extensively used to describe membrane potential behavior.
In this approach the interspike interval has a theoretical counterpart in the first-passage-time …
