Abstract
Consider a heavy-tailed branching process (denoted by ) in random environments, under the condition which infers that . We show that (1) there exists no proper such that has a proper, non-degenerate limit, (2) normalized by a sequence of functions, a proper limit can be obtained, i.e., converges almost surely to a random variable , where -a.s., (3) finally, we give a necessary and sufficient conditions for the almost sure convergence of , where is a slowly varying function that may depends on .
