Abstract
We continue the study initiated by Jean Bertoin in 2012 of a random dynamics on the edges of a uniform Cayley tree with vertices in which, successively, each edge is either set on fire with some fixed probability or fireproof with probability . An edge which is set on fire burns and sets on fire its flammable neighbors, the fire then propagates in the tree, only stopped by fireproof edges. We study the distribution of the proportion of burnt and fireproof vertices and the sizes of the burnt or fireproof connected components as regarding the asymptotic behavior of .
