Branching processes in near-critical random environments
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2004

Branching processes are studied in random environments that are influenced by the population size and approach criticality as the population gets large. Results are applied to the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which is empirically known to exhibit first exponential and then linear growth of molecule numbers.
