Given a supercritical branching random walk $\{Z_n\}_{n\geq 0}$ on $\mathbb{R}$, let $Z_n([y,\infty))$ be the number of particles located in $[y,\infty)\subset\mathbb{R}$ at generation $n$. Let $m$ be the mean of the offspring law of…

We consider a branching random walk on $\mathbb{Z}$ started by $n$ particles at the origin, where each particle disperses according to a mean-zero random walk with bounded support and reproduces with mean number of offspring $1+\theta/n$.…

Consider a subcritical branching random walk $\{Z_k\}_{k\geq 0}$ with offspring distribution $\{p_k\}_{k\geq 0}$ and step size $X$. Let $M_n$ denote the rightmost position reached by $\{Z_k\}_{k\geq 0}$ up to generation $n$, and define $M…

We consider a branching-selection particle system on the real line. In this model the total size of the population at time $n$ is limited by $\exp\left(a n^{1/3}\right)$. At each step $n$, every individual dies while reproducing…

We prove that the maximal and minimal displacement of branching random walks with mean offspring number $\rho>1$ on free products of finite groups grows linearly almost surely. More precisely, we establish that the linear speed for the…

We consider a branching random walk on $\mathbb{R}$ with a killing barrier at zero. At criticality, the process becomes eventually extinct, and the total progeny $Z$ is therefore finite. We show that the tail distribution of $Z$ displays a…

This paper gives conditions for the rightmost particle in the $n$th generation of a multitype branching random walk to have a speed, in the sense that its location divided by n converges to a constant as n goes to infinity. Furthermore, a…
