High host density favors greater virulence: a model of parasite–host dynamics based on multi-type branching processes
We use a multitype continuous time Markov branching process model to describe the dynamics of the spread of parasites of two types that can mutate into each other in a common host population. While most mathematical models for the virulence of infectious diseases focus on the interplay between the d...
