Duality relations between spatial birth-death processes and diffusions in Hilbert space

Spatially dependent birth-death processes can be modelled by kinetic models such as the BBGKY hierarchy. Diffusion in infinite dimensional systems can be modelled with Brownian motion in Hilbert space. In this work Doi field theoretic formalism is utilised to establish dualities between these classes of processes. This enables path integral methods to calculate expectations of duality functions. These are exemplified with models ranging from stochastic cable signalling to jump-diffusion processes.
