Pruning processes $(\mathcal{F}(\theta),\theta\geq 0)$ have been studied separately for Galton-Watson trees and for L\'evy trees/forests. We establish here a limit theory that strongly connects the two studies. This solves an open problem…
In [Aldous,Pitman,1998] a tree-valued Markov chain is derived by pruning off more and more subtrees along the edges of a Galton-Watson tree. More recently, in [Abraham,Delmas,2012], a continuous analogue of the tree-valued pruning dynamics…
Recently, Abraham and Delmas constructed the distributions of super-critical L\'evy trees truncated at a fixed height by connecting super-critical L\'evy trees to (sub)critical L\'evy trees via a martingale transformation. A similar…
We present a new pruning procedure on discrete trees by adding marks on the nodes of trees. This procedure allows us to construct and study a tree-valued Markov process $\{{\cal G}(u)\}$ by pruning Galton-Watson trees and an analogous…
Since the work of Aldous and Pitman (1998), several authors have studied the pruning processes of Galton-Watson trees and their continuous analogue L\'evy trees. L\"ohr, Voisin and Winter (2015) introduced the space of bi-measure…
By studying an admissible family of branching mechanisms introduced in Li (2014), we obtain a pruning procedure on L\'evy trees. Then we could construct a decreasing L\'evy-CRT-valued process $\{{\mathcal T}_t\}$ by pruning L\'evy trees and…
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…
We present a construction of a L\'evy continuum random tree (CRT) associated with a super-critical continuous state branching process using the so-called exploration process and a Girsanov's theorem. We also extend the pruning procedure to…
We give an explicit construction of the increasing tree-valued process introduced by Abraham and Delmas using a random point process of trees and a grafting procedure. This random point process will be used in companion papers to study…
Consider the edge-deletion process in which the edges of some finite tree T are removed one after the other in the uniform random order. Roughly speaking, the cut-tree then describes the genealogy of connected components appearing in this…
We investigate the genealogical structure of general critical or subcritical continuous-state branching processes. Analogously to the coding of a discrete tree by its contour function, this genealogical structure is coded by a real-valued…
Given a general critical or sub-critical branching mechanism, we define a pruning procedure of the associated L\'evy continuum random tree. This pruning procedure is defined by adding some marks on the tree, using L\'evy snake techniques.…
We introduce the notion of a hereditary property for rooted real trees and we also consider reduction of trees by a given hereditary property. Leaf-length erasure, also called trimming, is included as a special case of hereditary reduction.…
We construct random locally compact real trees called Levy trees that are the genealogical trees associated with continuous-state branching processes. More precisely, we define a growing family of discrete Galton-Watson trees with i.i.d.…
Aldous, Evans and Pitman (1998) studied the behavior of the fragmentation process derived from deleting the edges of a uniform random tree on $n$ labelled vertices. In particular, they showed that, after proper rescaling, the above…
We consider the height process of a L\'{e}vy process with no negative jumps, and its associated continuous tree representation. Using tools developed by Duquesne and Le Gall, we construct a fragmentation process at height, which generalizes…
We consider a random walk on a Galton-Watson tree in random environment, in the subdiffusive case. We prove the convergence of the renormalised height function of the walk towards the continuous-time height process of a spectrally positive…
In this work, we study asymptotics of multitype Galton-Watson trees with finitely many types. We consider critical and irreducible offspring distributions such that they belong to the domain of attraction of a stable law, where the…
The first part of this paper ( arXiv:1607.02114 ) introduced splitting trees, those chronological trees admitting the self-similarity property where individuals give birth, at constant rate, to iid copies of themselves. It also established…
Given a general critical or sub-critical branching mechanism and its associated L\'evy continuum random tree, we consider a pruning procedure on this tree using a Poisson snake. It defines a fragmentation process on the tree. We compute the…
