Abstract

Large stochastic systems of marked particles are considered. These ‘populations' grow according to pairwise mutually catalytic reactions and in addition particles may exchange their type (mark) by a sampling procedure. We are interested in the explosive behavior of the model and its high density properties (law of large numbers).
