The Brownian bees model is a branching particle system with spatial selection. It is a system of $N$ particles which move as independent Brownian motions in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and independently branch at rate 1, and, crucially, at each…
The $N$-branching Brownian motion with selection ($N$-BBM) is a particle system consisting of $N$ independent particles that diffuse as Brownian motions in $\mathbb{R}$, branch at rate one, and whose size is kept constant by removing the…
$N$-Brownian bees is a branching-selection particle system in $\mathbb{R}^d$ in which $N$ particles behave as independent binary branching Brownian motions, and where at each branching event, we remove the particle furthest from the origin.…
We present an approximation to the Brunet--Derrida model of supercritical branching Brownian motion on the real line with selection of the $N$ right-most particles, valid when the population size $N$ is large. It consists of introducing a…
In this thesis, branching Brownian motion (BBM) is a random particle system where the particles diffuse on the real line according to Brownian motions and branch at constant rate into a random number of particles with expectation greater…
We consider a large family of branching-selection particle systems. The branching rate of each particle depends on its rank and is given by a function $b$ defined on the unit interval. There is also a killing measure $D$ supported on the…
The Branching Brownian Motions (BBM) are particles performing independent Brownian motions in $\mathbb R$ and each particle at rate 1 creates a new particle at her current position; the newborn particle increments and branchings are…
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…
We introduce particle systems in one or more dimensions in which particles perform branching Brownian motion and the population size is kept constant equal to $N > 1$, through the following selection mechanism: at all times only the $N$…
In this paper we study the maximal position process of branching Brownian motion in random spatial environment. The random environment is given by a process $\xi = \left(\xi(x)\right)_{x\in\mathbb{R}}$ satisfying certain conditions. We show…
We study analytically the order and gap statistics of particles at time $t$ for the one dimensional branching Brownian motion, conditioned to have a fixed number of particles at $t$. The dynamics of the process proceeds in continuous time…
The "Brownian bees" model describes a system of $N$ independent branching Brownian particles. At each branching event the particle farthest from the origin is removed, so that the number of particles remains constant at all times.…
The $N$-particle branching Brownian motion ($N$-BBM) is a branching Markov process which describes the evolution of a population of particles undergoing reproduction and selection. It has attracted a lot of interest due to its relations to…
Consider a point particle moving through a Poisson distributed array of cubes all oriented along the axes - the random wind-tree model introduced in Ehrenfest-Ehrenfest (1912). We show that, in the joint Boltzmann-Grad and diffusive limit…
We provide a rigorous derivation of the brownian motion as the limit of a deterministic system of hard-spheres as the number of particles $N$ goes to infinity and their diameter $\varepsilon$ simultaneously goes to $0$, in the fast…
This dissertation examines the impact of a drift {\mu} on Brownian Bees, which is a type of branching Brownian motion that retains only the N closest particles to the origin. The selection effect in the 0-drift system ensures that it…
We consider a branching-selection system of particles on the real line that evolves according to the following rules: each particle moves according to a Brownian motion during an exponential lifetime and then splits into two new particles…
The ``Brownian bees" model describes an ensemble of $N$ independent branching Brownian particles. When a particle branches into two particles, the particle farthest from the origin is eliminated so as to keep a constant number of particles.…
We consider branching Brownian motion in which initially there is one particle at $x$, particles produce a random number of offspring with mean $m+1$ at the time of branching events, and each particle branches at rate $\beta = 1/2m$.…
We consider a branching particle system where each particle moves as an independent Brownian motion and breeds at a rate proportional to its distance from the origin raised to the power $p$, for $p\in[0,2)$. The asymptotic behaviour of the…
