Galton-Watson processes in dynamical environments

Abstract

We define a model of Galton Watson processes in dynamical environments where the environment evolves according to a dynamical system (X, T). Three behaviours are possible: uniformly subcritical, critical, and uniformly supercritical. We study the extinction probability q in the uniformly supercritical case. In particular, we investigate the regularity of this application as a function of the environment x. In the critical case, we study the set of bad environments N (where the probability of extinction is one), which is T -invariant. We give its Hausdorff dimension in some cases.
