Asymptotic regimes for the occupancy scheme of multiplicative cascades

Probability 2007-10-09 v2

Abstract

In the classical occupancy scheme, one considers a fixed discrete probability measure p=(pi:iI){\bf p}=(p_i: {i\in{\cal I}}) and throws balls independently at random in boxes labeled by I{\cal I}, such that pip_i is the probability that a given ball falls into the box ii. In this work, we are interested in asymptotic regimes of this scheme in the situation induced by a refining sequence (p(k):kN)({\bf p}(k) : k\in\N) of random probability measures which arise from some multiplicative cascade. Our motivation comes from the study of the asymptotic behavior of certain fragmentation chains
