Resumo: In this work ,we will consider two stochastic models for evolution os species. First, births and deaths of species occur with constant probabilities. Each new species is associated with a fitness sampled from the uniform distribution on [0,1]. Every time there is a death event then the type is killed is the one with smallest fitness. We show that there is a sharp phasetransitionwhentheprobabilityislargerthanthedeathprobability.Thesetofspecies with fitness higher than a certain critical value approach an uniform distribution. On the other hand all the species with fitness less than the crital disappear after a finite (random) time. The second model, we consider a stochastic model for species evolution. A new species is born at rateλ and a species dies at rate µ. A random number, sampled from a given distribution F, is associated with each new species and assumed as its fitness, at the time of birth. Likewise the first model, every time there is a death event, the species that is killed is the one with the smallest fitness. We consider the (random) survival time if a species with a given fitness f. We show that the survival time distribution depends crucially on whetherf<fc ,f=fc orf>fc where fc is a critical fitness that is computed explicit.
