Consider a weighted branching process generated by the lengths of intervals obtained by stick-breaking of unit length (a.k.a. the residual allocation model) and associate with each weight a `box'. Given the weights `balls' are thrown…
A nested occupancy scheme in random environment is a generalization of the classical Karlin infinite balls-in-boxes occupancy scheme in random environment (with random probabilities). Unlike the Karlin scheme in which the collection of…
A nested Karlin's occupancy scheme is a symbiosis of classical Karlin's balls-in-boxes scheme and a weighted branching process. To define it, imagine a deterministic weighted branching process in which weights of the first generation…
We investigate a nested balls-in-boxes scheme in a random environment. The boxes follow a nested hierarchy, with infinitely many boxes in each level, and the hitting probabilities of boxes are random and obtained by iterated fragmentation…
We consider an infinite balls-in-boxes occupancy scheme with boxes organised in nested hierarchy, and random probabilities of boxes defined in terms of iterated fragmentation of a unit mass. We obtain a multivariate functional limit theorem…
Let $(p_k)_{k\in\mathbb{N}}$ be a discrete probability distribution for which the counting function $x\mapsto \#\{k\in\mathbb{N}: p_k\geq 1/x\}$ belongs to the de Haan class $\Pi$. Consider a deterministic weighted branching process…
We consider the classic infinite occupancy scheme, where balls are thrown in boxes independently, with probability $p_j$ of hitting box $j$. Each time a box receives its first ball we speak of a record and, more generally, call an…
The paper is concerned with the classical occupancy scheme with infinitely many boxes, in which $n$ balls are thrown independently into boxes $1,2,...$, with probability $p_j$ of hitting the box $j$, where $p_1\geq p_2\geq...>0$ and…
The occupation time of an age-dependent branching particle system in $\Rd$ is considered, where the initial population is a Poisson random field and the particles are subject to symmetric $\alpha$-stable migration, critical binary branching…
The paper concerns the classical occupancy scheme with infinitely many boxes. We establish approximations to the distributions of the number of occupied boxes, and of the number of boxes containing exactly r balls, within the family of…
In the classical occupancy scheme, one considers a fixed discrete probability measure ${\bf p}=(p_i: {i\in{\cal I}})$ and throws balls independently at random in boxes labeled by ${\cal I}$, such that $p_i$ is the probability that a given…
Consider a critical nearest neighbor branching random walk on the $d$-dimensional integer lattice initiated by a single particle at the origin. Let $G_{n}$ be the event that the branching random walk survives to generation $n$. We obtain…
The Bernoulli sieve is a version of the classical `balls-in-boxes' occupancy scheme, in which random frequencies of infinitely many boxes are produced by a multiplicative renewal process, also known as the residual allocation model or…

An occupancy problem with an infinite number of bins and a random probability vector for the locations of the balls is considered. The respective sizes of bins are related to the split times of a Yule process. The asymptotic behavior of the…
We consider a system of interacting Fisher-Wright diffusions with seed-bank. Individuals carry type one of two types, live in colonies, and are subject to resampling and migration as long as they are active. Each colony has a structured…
The work continues the author's many-year research in theory of maximal branching processes, which are obtained from classical branching processes by replacing the summation of descendant numbers with taking the maximum. One can say that in…
We revisit the random allocation model in which $n$ balls are independently placed into $N$ boxes with probabilities $q_1,\ldots,q_N$. A classical asymptotic result due to Kolchin, Sevastyanov, and Chistyakov for the expectations,…
We revisit a version of the classic occupancy scheme, where balls are thrown until almost all boxes receive a given number of balls. Special cases are widely known as coupon-collectors and dixie cup problems. We show that as the number of…
A branching process in random environment $(Z_n, n \in \N)$ is a generalization of Galton Watson processes where at each generation the reproduction law is picked randomly. In this paper we give several results which belong to the class of…
