Quasistationary distributions and fleming-viot processes in finite spaces

Consider a continuous-time Markov process with transition rates matrix Q in the state space Λ ∪ {0}. In the associated Fleming-Viot process N particles evolve independently in Λ with transition rates matrix Q until one of them attempts to jump to state 0. At this moment the particle jumps to one of...
