Instantaneous support propagation for $\Lambda$-Fleming-Viot processes

Probability 2022-03-07 v1

Abstract

For a probability-measure-valued neutral Fleming-Viot process ZtZ_t with L\'evy mutation and resampling mechanism associated to a general Λ\Lambda-coalescent with multiple collisions, we prove the instantaneous propagation of supports. That is, at any fixed time t>0t>0, with probability one the closed support S(Zt)S(Z_t) of the Fleming-Viot process satisfies S(νZt)S(Zt)S(\nu * Z_t) \subseteq S(Z_t), where ν\nu is the L\'evy measure of the mutation process. To show this result, we apply Donnelly-Kurtz's lookdown particle representation for Fleming-Viot process.
