Primes

• Critical Mass
  • The prime therefore names a qualitative regime change keyed to crossing a quantitative line: the difference between subcritical and supercritical is not one of degree but of kind, because feedback either compounds or it does not.

    This sourceCanonical treatment of branching processes: a Galton–Watson process with mean offspring below one goes extinct almost surely while one above one has positive survival probability, grounding the sharp decay-versus-self-sustenance dichotomy in the mathematics of self-reproduction.

Domain-specific

• Branching process
  • The Galton-Watson case uses discrete generations and a common offspring distribution, while continuous-time, multitype, age-dependent and environment-dependent variants alter the carrier and independence assumptions.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
