Abstract
We focus on the partial sum of the critical branching process with immigration , when the offspring is regularly varying with index and the immigration is regularly varying with index . The precise large deviation probabilities for are specified, that is, for some appropriate sequences and , uniformly for , , where is a slowly varying function. Different from that of the subcritical case, here the upper bound is needed. Essentially, this is because the tail probability of the stationary distribution is determined by the offspring or the immigration in the subcritical case. But it is determined by both when the process is critical.
