Stationary distributions for a class of generalized Fleming-Viot processes

Probability 2014-03-28 v3

Abstract

We identify stationary distributions of generalized Fleming-Viot processes with jump mechanisms specified by certain beta laws together with a parameter measure. Each of these distributions is obtained from normalized stable random measures after a suitable biased transformation followed by mixing by the law of a Dirichlet random measure with the same parameter measure. The calculations are based primarily on the well-known relationship to measure-valued branching processes with immigration.
