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.
