We consider a multitype Galton-Watson process that allows for the mutation and reversion of individual types in discrete and continuous time. In this setting, we explicitly compute the time evolution of quantities such as the mean and…
We study the genealogies of samples of $k$ distinguished particles drawn from the population alive at some fixed time in a continuous-time multitype Bienaym\'e-Galton-Watson (MBGW) process under two different type dependent sampling…
We consider the asymptotics of various estimators based on a large sample of branching trees from a critical multi-type Galton-Watson process, as the sample size increases to infinity. The asymptotics of additive functions of trees, such as…
Let $\tau$n be a random tree distributed as a Galton-Watson tree with geometric offspring distribution conditioned on {Zn = an} where Zn is the size of the n-th generation and (an, n $\in$ N *) is a deterministic positive sequence. We study…
Coalescence processes have received a lot of attention in the context of conditional branching processes with fixed population size and non-overlapping generations. Here we focus on similar problems in the context of the standard…
We consider a super-critical Galton-Watson tree whose non-degenerate offspring distribution has finite mean. We consider the random trees $\tau$n distributed as $\tau$ conditioned on the n-th generation, Zn, to be of size an $\in$ N. 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 article, we focus on Bienaym\'e-Galton-Watson processes with linear-fractional offspring distributions. At a fixed generation, we consider a sample of the individuals alive, drawn in two different ways: either through Bernoulli…
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 investigate conditioning Galton-Watson trees on general recursive-type events, such as the event that the tree survives until a specific level. It turns out that the conditioned tree is again a type of Galton-Watson tree, with different…
We establish lower tail bounds for the height, and upper tail bounds for the width, of critical size-conditioned Bienaym\'e trees. Our bounds are optimal at this level of generality. We also obtain precise asymptotics for offspring…
A Galton-Watson branching process with immigration evolving in a random environment is considered. Its associated random walk is assumed to be oscillating. We prove a functional limit theorem in which the process under consideration is…
We study the genealogy of a sample of $k$ individuals taken uniformly without replacement from a continuous-time multitype Bienaym\'e--Galton--Watson process at fixed times. Our results are quite general, requiring only that the process be…
For a complex number $\alpha$, we consider the sum of the $\alpha$th powers of subtree sizes in Galton--Watson trees conditioned to be of size $n$. Limiting distributions of this functional $X_n(\alpha)$ have been determined for $\Re\alpha…
We study the distribution of additive functionals of reset Brownian motion, a variation of normal Brownian motion in which the path is interrupted at a given rate and placed back to a given reset position. Our goal is two-fold: (1) For…
We describe a procedure to introduce general dependence structures on a set of random variables. These include order-$q$ moving average-type structures, as well as seasonal, periodic, spatial and spatio-temporal dependences. The invariant…
Branching processes $(Z_n)_{n \ge 0}$ in a varying environment generalize the Galton-Watson process, in that they allow time-dependence of the offspring distribution. Our main results concern general criteria for a.s. extinction,…
In this work, we study asymptotics of the genealogy of Galton--Watson processes conditioned on the total progeny. We consider a fixed, aperiodic and critical offspring distribution such that the rescaled Galton--Watson processes converges…
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 derive some additional results on the Bienyam\'e-Galton-Watson branching process with $\theta -$linear fractional branching mechanism, as studied in \cite{Sag}. This includes: the explicit expression of the limit laws in both the…
