Conditioning the birth-death process on a certain time and the survival of the process.

Description

Calculating the probability of conditioning the birth-death process on the time t and its survival to present day.

Usage

Pcond(t, r, epsi, y)

Arguments

t

Numeric. The specific time in the past in millions of years. Typically, the age of the clade is used to condition on the start of the process.

r

Numeric. The net diversification rate: λ - μ. The units are in events/lineages/millions years.

epsi

Numeric. The turnover rate: μ / λ. The units are in events/lineages/millions years.

y

Numeric. The sampling probability also called sampling fraction: k / N.

Value

The probability of the birth-death process starting with one lineage at time t and surviving at present.
