We construct models of continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC) and Itô stochastic differential equations of population interactions based on a deterministic system of two phytoplankton and one zooplankton populations. The mechanisms of mutual interference among the predator zooplankton and the avoidance of toxin-producing phytoplankton (TPP) by zooplankton are incorporated. Sudden population extinctions occur in the stochastic models that cannot be captured in the deterministic systems. In addition, the effect of periodic toxin production by TPP is lessened when the birth and death of the populations are modeled randomly.

This paper deals with a class of discrete-time Markov chains for which the invariant measures can be expressed in terms of generalized continued fractions. The representation covers a wide class of stochastic models and is well suited for numerical applications. The results obtained can easily be extended to continuous-time Markov chains.

The continuous-time Markov model of a multigrade organization is extended in several ways. Firstly the internal transitions and the leaving process are generalized to a semi-Markov formulation which allows for the inclusion of well-authenticated leaving distributions such as the mixed exponential distribution. The previous assumption of Poisson recruitment is then generalized to allow for a time-dependent Poisson arrival distribution in which the instantaneous probability of an arrival is a mixture of exponential terms. Finally we extend the capital-related manpower model to describe a multigrade organization.
