Critical exponential tiltings for size-conditioned multitype Bienaym\'e--Galton--Watson trees

Abstract

We consider here multitype Bienaym\'e--Galton--Watson trees, under the conditioning that the numbers of vertices of given type satisfy some linear relations. We prove that, under some smoothness conditions on the offspring distribution ζ\mathbf{\zeta}, there exists a critical offspring distribution ζ~\tilde{\mathbf{\zeta}} such that the trees with offspring distribution ζ\mathbf{\zeta} and ζ~\tilde{\mathbf{\zeta}} have the same law under our conditioning. This allows us in a second time to characterize the local limit of such trees, as their size goes to infinity. Our main tool is a notion of exponential tilting for multitype Bienaym\'e--Galton--Watson trees.
