Abstract

Let Zn,n0{Z_{n},n\geq 0} be a critical branching process in random environment and let TT be its moment of extinction. Under the annealed approach we prove, as n,n\to \infty , a limit theorem for the number of particles in the process at moment nn given T=n+1T=n+1 and a functional limit theorem for the properly scaled process Znt,δt1δ{Z_{nt},\delta \leq t\leq 1-\delta} given T=n+1T=n+1 and δ(0,1/2)\delta \in (0,1/2).
