On the genealogy on conditioned stable L\'evy forest

Probability 2007-06-19 v1

Abstract

We give a realization of the stable L\'evy forest of a given size conditioned by its mass from the path of the unconditioned forest. Then, we prove an invariance principle for this conditioned forest by considering kk independent Galton-Watson trees whose offspring distribution is in the domain of attraction of any stable law conditioned on their total progeny to be equal to nn. We prove that when nn and kk tend towards ++\infty, under suitable rescaling, the associated coding random walk, the contour and height processes converge in law on the Skorokhod space respectively towards the "first passage bridge" of a stable L\'evy process with no negative jumps and its height process.
