In this paper, we review recent results of ours concerning branching processes with general lifetimes and neutral mutations, under the infinitely many alleles model, where mutations can occur either at birth of individuals or at a constant…
We prove that, in the random stirring model of parameter T on an infinite rooted tree each of whose vertices has at least two offspring, infinite cycles exist almost surely, provided that T is sufficiently high. In the appendices, the bound…
The aim of this paper is to introduce a multitype branching process with random migration following the research initiated with the Galton-Watson process with migration introduced in [Yanev & Mitov (1980) C. R. Acad. Bulg. Sci.…
The Crump-Young model consists of two fully coupled stochastic processes modeling the substrate and microorganisms dynamics in a chemostat. Substrate evolves following an ordinary differential equation whose coefficients depend of…
We consider a critical continuous-time branching process (a Yule process) in which the individuals independently execute symmetric $\alpha-$stable random motions on the real line starting at their birth points. Because the branching process…
We study multi-type Bienaym\'e-Galton-Watson processes with linear-fractional reproduction laws using various analytical tools like contour process, spinal representation, Perron-Frobenius theorem for countable matrices, renewal theory. For…
We study a critical multitype Bellman--Harris branching particle system in \(\mathbb R^N\) with a finite type space \(\mathbf K=\{1,\dots,K\}\). Particles of type \(I\) move according to a symmetric \(\alpha_i\)-stable process, have…
Super star clusters are the end product of star formation under the most extreme conditions. As such, studying how their final stellar populations are assembled from their natal progenitor gas clouds can provide strong constraints on star…
In this paper, we consider a class of generalized continuous-state branching processes obtained by Lamperti type time changes of spectrally positive L\'evy processes using different rate functions. When explosion occurs to such a process,…
We consider diffusion processes x_{t} on the unit interval. Doob-transformation techniques consist of a selection of x_{t}-paths procedure. The law of the transformed process is the one of a branching diffusion system of particles, each…
By decomposing the random walk path, we construct a multitype branching process with immigration in random environment for corresponding random walk with bounded jumps in random environment. Then we give two applications of the branching…
Branching processes pervade many models in statistical physics. We investigate the survival probability of a Galton-Watson branching process after a finite number of generations. We reveal the finite-size scaling law of the survival…
The structure of cloud complexes appears to be well described by a "tree structure" representation when the image is partitioned into "clouds". In this representation, the parent-child relationships are assigned according to containment.…
One of the central problems in supernova theory is the question how massive stars explode. Understanding the physical processes that drive the explosion is crucial for linking the stellar progenitors to the final remnants and for predicting…
We are interested in predator-prey dynamics on infinite trees, which can informally be seen as particular two-type branching processes where individuals may die (or be infected) only after their parent dies (or is infected). We study two…
We consider two versions of stochastic population models with mutation and selection. The first approach relies on a multitype branching process; here, individuals reproduce and change type (i.e., mutate) independently of each other,…
We study a genealogical model for continuous-state branching processes with immigration with a (sub)critical branching mechanism. This model allows the immigrants to be on the same line of descent. The corresponding family tree is an…
The properties of randomly evolving special trees having defined and analyzed already in two earlier papers (arXiv:cond-mat/0205650 and arXiv:cond-mat/0211092) have been investigated in the case when the continuous time parameter converges…
Most gamma-ray bursts are made during the deaths of massive stars. Here the environmental circumstances, stellar evolutionary paths, and explosion physics that might produce the bursts are reviewed. Neither of the two leading models -…
Let $\left\{ Z_{n},n=0,1,2,...\right\} $ be a critical branching process in random environment and let $\left\{ S_{n},n=0,1,2,...\right\} $ be its associated random walk. It is known that if the increments of this random walk belong…
