We study the evolution of a particle system whose genealogy is given by a supercritical continuous time Galton--Watson tree. The particles move independently according to a Markov process and when a branching event occurs, the offspring…
In this paper, we show that a Galton-Watson tree conditioned to have a fixed number of particles in generation $n$ converges in distribution as $n\rightarrow\infty$, and with this tool we study the span and gap statistics of a branching…
In this article, we study a simple random walk on a decorated Galton-Watson tree, obtained from a Galton-Watson tree by replacing each vertex of degree $n$ with an independent copy of a graph $G_n$ and gluing the inserted graphs along the…
Bootstrap percolation is a type of cellular automaton which has been used to model various physical phenomena, such as ferromagnetism. For each natural number $r$, the $r$-neighbour bootstrap process is an update rule for vertices of a…
In this paper we are concerned with contact processes with random edge weights on rooted regular trees. We assign i.i.d weights on each edge on the tree and assume that an infected vertex infects its healthy neighbor at rate proportional to…
The contact process is a simple model for the spread of an infection in a structured population. We investigate the case when the underlying structure evolves dynamically as a degree-dependent dynamical percolation model. Starting with a…
We study the typical behavior of the harmonic measure of balls in large critical Galton-Watson trees whose offspring distribution has finite variance. The harmonic measure considered here refers to the hitting distribution of height $n$ by…
We consider the motion of a particle on a Galton Watson tree, when the probabilities of jumping from a vertex to any one of its neighbours is determined by a random process. Given the tree, positive weights are assigned to the edges in such…
The study of Gaussian free field level sets on supercritical Galton-Watson trees has been initiated by Ab\"acherli and Sznitman in Ann. Inst. Henri Poincar\'{e} Probab. Stat., 54(1):173--201, 2018. By means of entirely different tools, we…
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…
In this paper we observe the frog model, an infinite system of interacting random walks, on Z with an asymmetric underlying random walk. Under the assumption of transience with a fixed frog distribution, we construct an explicit formula for…
We show existence of a non-trivial phase transition for the contact process, a simple model for infection without immunity, on a network which reacts dynamically to the infection trying to prevent an epidemic. This network initially has the…
We study a rumour model from a percolation theory and branching process point of view. The existence of a giant component is related to the event where the rumour, which started from the root of a tree, spreads out through an infinite…
We study various models of independent particles hopping between energy `traps' with a density of energy barriers $\rho(E)$, on a $d$ dimensional lattice or on a fully connected lattice. If $\rho(E)$ decays exponentially, a true dynamical…
We consider the Ising model on a supercritical Galton-Watson tree $\mathbf{T}_n$ of depth $n$ with a sparse random external field, given by a collection of i.i.d. Bernouilli random variables with vanishing parameter $p_n$. This may me…
In this paper, we establish the necessary and sufficient criterion for the contact process on Galton-Watson trees (resp. random graphs) to exhibit the phase of extinction (resp. short survival). We prove that the survival threshold…
We revisit the random tree model with nearest-neighbour interaction as described in previous work, enhancing growth. When the underlying free Bienaym\'e-Galton-Watson (BGW) model is sub-critical, we show that the (non-Markov) model with…
We study the typical behavior of the harmonic measure in large critical Galton-Watson trees whose offspring distribution is in the domain of attraction of a stable distribution with index $\alpha\in (1,2]$. Let $\mu_n$ denote the hitting…
A two-type version of the frog model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is formulated, where active type $i$ particles move according to lazy random walks with probability $p_i$ of jumping in each time step ($i=1,2$). Each site is independently assigned a…
We consider a new model of a branching random walk on a multidimensional lattice with continuous time and one source of particle reproduction and death, as well as an infinite number of sources in which, in addition to the walk, only…
