Abstract

Given a super-critical branching random walk on R\mathbb{R} started from the origin, let Z_n()Z\_n(\cdot) be the counting measure which counts the number of individuals at the nn-th generation located in a given set. Under some mild conditions, it is known in \cite{B90} that for any interval ARA\subset \mathbb{R}, Z_n(nA)Z_n(R)\frac{Z\_n(\sqrt{n}A)}{Z\_n(\mathbb{R})} converges a.s. to ν(A)\nu(A), where ν\nu is the standard Gaussian measure. In this work, we investigate the convergence rates of P(Z_n(nA)Z_n(R)ν(A)>Δ),\mathbb{P}\left(\frac{Z\_n(\sqrt{n}A)}{Z\_n(\mathbb{R})}-\nu(A)>\Delta\right), for Δ(0,1ν(A))\Delta\in (0, 1-\nu(A)), in both Schr{\"o}der case and B{\"o}ttcher case.
