Branching Brownian motion: Almost sure growth along scaled paths

Probability 2010-04-22 v2

Abstract

We give a proof of a result on the growth of the number of particles along chosen paths in a branching Brownian motion. The work follows the approach of classical large deviations results, in which paths in C[0,1]C[0,1] are rescaled onto C[0,T]C[0,T] for large TT. The methods used are probabilistic and take advantage of modern spine techniques.
