A Galton-Watson process in varying environment is a discrete time branching process where the offspring distributions vary among generations. Based on a two-spine decomposition technique, we provide a probabilistic argument of a Yaglom-type…

In this paper we address the problem of testing whether two observed trees $(t,t')$ are sampled either independently or from a joint distribution under which they are correlated. This problem, which we refer to as correlation detection in…

We identify the fluctuations of the partition function of the continuous random energy model on a Galton-Watson tree in the so-called weak correlation regime. Namely, when the ``speed functions'', that describe the time-inhomogeneous…

In this paper, we study a parallel version of Galton-Watson processes for the random generation of tree-shaped structures. Random trees are useful in many situations (testing, binary search, simulation of physics phenomena,...) as attests…

We generalize the phase transition model studied in [R. Colombo. Hyperbolic phase transition in traffic flow.\ SIAM J.\ Appl.\ Math., 63(2):708-721, 2002], that describes the evolution of vehicular traffic along a one-lane road. Two…

In this paper we consider inhomogeneous Galton-Watson trees, and derive various moments for such processes: the number of vertices, the number of leaves, and the height of the tree. Also we make a simple condition of finiteness. We use…

We show that large critical multi-type Galton-Watson trees, when conditioned to be large, converge locally in distribution to an infinite tree which is analoguous to Kesten's infinite monotype Galton-Watson tree. This is proven when we…

We prove an invariance principle for linearly edge reinforced random walks on $\gamma$-stable critical Galton-Watson trees, where $\gamma \in (1,2]$ and where the edge joining $x$ to its parent has rescaled initial weight $d(\rho,…

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…

We study a classical multitype Galton--Watson process with mutation and selection. The individuals are sequences of fixed length over a finite alphabet. On the sharp peak fitness landscape together with independent mutations per locus, we…

The parabolic Anderson model is the heat equation with some extra spatial randomness. In this paper we consider the parabolic Anderson model with i.i.d. Pareto potential on a critical Galton-Watson tree conditioned to survive. We prove that…

We study various models of random non-crossing configurations consisting of diagonals of convex polygons, and focus in particular on uniform dissections and non-crossing trees. For both these models, we prove convergence in distribution…

The biased random walk on supercritical Galton--Watson trees is known to exhibit a multiscale phenomenon in the slow regime: the maximal displacement of the walk in the first $n$ steps is of order $(\log n)^3$, whereas the typical…
