We consider a class of Crump-Mode-Jagers processes with interaction, constructed by removing a newly born offspring with a probability that depends on the age structure of the population at its birth time. We prove a law of large numbers…
Let us consider a real L\'evy process X whose transition probabilities are absolutely continuous and have bounded densities. Then the law of the past supremum of X before any deterministic time t is absolutely continuous on (0,\infty). We…
We study small time bounds for transition densities of convolution semigroups corresponding to pure jump L\'evy processes in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$, $d \geq 1$, including those with jumping kernels exponentially and subexponentially localized at…
The subcritical Markov branching process X(t) starting with one particle as the initial condition has the ultimate extinction probability q = 1. The branching mechanism in consideration is defined by the mixture of logarithmic distributions…
This paper is a collection of recent results on discrete-time and continuous-time branching random walks. Some results are new and others are known. Many aspects of this theory are considered: local, global and strong local survival, the…
It has been conjectured since the work of Lalley and Sellke (1987) that the branching Brownian motion seen from its tip (e.g. from its rightmost particle) converges to an invariant point process. Very recently, it emerged that this can be…
Let $\mathbb{X}=(\mathbb{X}_t)_{t\geq 0}$ be the subdiffusive process defined, for any $t\geq 0$, by $ \mathbb{X}_t = X_{\ell_t}$ where $X=(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ is a L\'evy process and $\ell_t=\inf \{s>0;\: \mathcal{K}_s>t \}$ with…
Consider a catalytic super-Brownian motion $X=X^\Gamma$ with finite variance branching. Here `catalytic' means that branching of the reactant $X$ is only possible in the presence of some catalyst. Our intrinsic example of a catalyst is a…
In this paper the asymptotic behavior of a critical multi-type branching process with immigration is described when the offspring mean matrix is irreducible, in other words, when the process is indecomposable. It is proved that sequences of…
We study L\'{e}vy-like and truncated L\'{e}vy-like flights with step probability distribution of the form $r^{-1+\nu}$ for negative, positive, and zero $\nu$, focusing on the appearance of fractal geometry characteristics in the generated…
Let X be a critical branching L{\'e}vy process whose offspring distribution is in the domain of attraction of a stable random variable. We study the tail probability of the maximum location ever reached by a particle in two different…
In this paper, we study the L\'evy process time-changed by independent L\'evy subordinators, namely, the incomplete gamma subordinator, the $\epsilon$-jumps incomplete gamma subordinator and tempered incomplete gamma subordinator. We derive…
We study discrete-time stochastic processes $(X_t)$ on $[0,\infty)$ with asymptotically zero mean drifts. Specifically, we consider the critical (Lamperti-type) situation in which the mean drift at $x$ is about $c/x$. Our focus is the…
We study a real-valued L\'evy-type process $X$, which is locally $\alpha$-stable in the sense that its jump kernel is a combination of a `principal' (state dependent) $\alpha$-stable part with a `residual' lower order part. We show that…
By killing a stable L\'{e}vy process when it leaves the positive half-line, or by conditioning it to stay positive, or by conditioning it to hit 0 continuously, we obtain three different positive self-similar Markov processes which…
This article provides an overview of recent work on descriptions and properties of the convex minorant of random walks and L\'evy processes which summarize and extend the literature on these subjects. The results surveyed include point…
We consider a L\'evy process that starts from $x<0$ and conditioned on having a positive maximum. When Cram\'er's condition holds, we provide two weak limit theorems as $x\to -\infty$ for the law of the (two-sided) path shifted at the first…
We consider a discrete-time branching random walk defined on the real line, which is assumed to be supercritical and in the boundary case. It is known that its leftmost position of the $n$-th generation behaves asymptotically like…
Let $T$ be the extinction moment of a critical branching process $Z=(Z_{n},n\geq 0) $ in a random environment specified by iid probability generating functions. We study the asymptotic behavior of the probability of extinction of the…
For a L\'evy process $\xi=(\xi_t)_{t\geq0}$ drifting to $-\infty$, we define the so-called exponential functional as follows \[{\rm{I}}_{\xi}=\int_0^{\infty}e^{\xi_t} dt.\] Under mild conditions on $\xi$, we show that the following…
