Stability of multi-dimensional birth-and-death processes with state-dependent 0-homogeneous jumps

We study the conditions for positive recurrence and transience of multi-dimensional birth-and-death processes describing the evolution of a large class of stochastic systems, a typical example being the randomly varying number of flow-level transfers in a telecommunication wire-line or wireless netw...
