Abstract

Consider a branching random walk (Vu)uTIGW(V_u)_{u\in \mathcal T^{IGW}} in Zd\mathbb Z^d with the genealogy tree TIGW\mathcal T^{IGW} formed by a sequence of i.i.d. critical Galton-Watson trees. Let RnR_n be the set of points in Zd\mathbb Z^d visited by (Vu)(V_u) when the index uu explores the first nn subtrees in TIGW\mathcal T^{IGW}. Our main result states that for d{3,4,5}d\in \{3, 4, 5\}, the capacity of RnR_n is almost surely equal to nd22+o(1)n^{\frac{d-2}{2}+o(1)} as nn \to \infty.
