In this paper, we introduce a one-dimensional model of particles performing independent random walks, where only pairs of particles can produce offspring ("cooperative branching"), and particles that land on an occupied site merge with the…
It is shown that a certain functional of a branching process has representations in terms of both a maximisation problem and a minimisation problem. A consequence of these representation is that upper and lower bounds on the functional can…
For a spectrally negative L\'evy process (snLp) $X$, killed according to a rate that is a function $\omega$ of its position, we analyse the exit probability of the one-sided upwards-passage problem. When $\omega$ is strictly positive, this…
We call a random point measure infinitely ramified if for every $n\in \mathbb N$, it has the same distribution as the $n$-th generation of some branching random walk. On the other hand, branching L\'evy processes model the evolution of a…
Let $a\in (0,\infty)$. For a spectrally negative L\'evy process $X$ with infinite variation paths the resolvent of the process killed on hitting the two-point set $V=\{-a,a\}$ is identified. When further $X$ has no diffusion component the…
We consider a generalization of a one-dimensional stochastic process known in the physical literature as L\'evy-Lorentz gas. The process describes the motion of a particle on the real line in the presence of a random array of marked points,…
We generalise the Langevin equation with Gaussian white noise by replacing the velocity term by a local fractional derivative. The solution of this equation is a Levy process. We further consider the Brownian motion of a fractal particle,…
We study one-dimensional Levy processes with Levy-Khintchine exponent psi(xi^2), where psi is a complete Bernstein function. These processes are subordinate Brownian motions corresponding to subordinators, whose Levy measure has completely…
The general theory of the branching processes is used for establishing the relation between the parameters $k$ and $\bar n$ of the negative binomial distribution. This relation gives the possibility to describe the overall data on…
We construct and study branching Markov processes on the space of finite configurations of the state space of a given standard process, controlled by a branching kernel and a killing one. In particular, we may start with a superprocess,…
Consider a spectrally positive Stable($1+\alpha$) process whose jumps we interpret as lifetimes of individuals. We mark the jumps by continuous excursions assigning "sizes" varying during the lifetime. As for Crump-Mode-Jagers processes…
A L\'evy process is said to creep through a curve if, at its first passage time across this curve, the process reaches it with positive probability. We first study this property for bivariate subordinators. Given the graph…
We study a class of multitype branching L\'evy processes, where particles move according to type-dependent L\'evy processes, switch types via an irreducible Markov chain, and branch according to type-dependent laws. This framework…
We investigate the random continuous trees called L\'evy trees, which are obtained as scaling limits of discrete Galton-Watson trees. We give a mathematically precise definition of these random trees as random variables taking values in the…
In this work we study a branching particle system of diffusion processes on the real line interacting through their rank in the system. Namely, each particle follows an independent Brownian motion, but only K $\ge$ 1 particles on the far…
The L\'evy walk process for a lower interval of an excursion times distribution ($\alpha<1$) is discussed. The particle rests between the jumps and the waiting time is position-dependent. Two cases are considered: a rising and diminishing…
For both Levy flight and Levy walk search processes we analyse the full distribution of first-passage and first-hitting (or first-arrival) times. These are, respectively, the times when the particle moves across a point at some given…
Splitting trees are those random trees where individuals give birth at constant rate during a lifetime with general distribution, to i.i.d. copies of themselves. The width process of a splitting tree is then a binary, homogeneous…
We consider a branching-selection particle system on $\Z$ with $N \geq 1$ particles. During a branching step, each particle is replaced by two new particles, whose positions are shifted from that of the original particle by independently…
Double (or parity conserving) branching annihilating random walk, introduced by Sudbury in '90, is a one-dimensional non-attractive particle system in which positive and negative particles perform nearest neighbor hopping, produce two…
