We consider Beta$(2-\alpha, \alpha)$-coalescents with parameter range $1 <\alpha<2$ starting from $n$ leaves. The length $\ell^{(n)}_r$ of order $r$ in the $n$-Beta$(2-\alpha, \alpha)$-coalescent tree is defined as the sum of the lengths of…

In this paper, we consider Beta$(2-{\alpha},{\alpha})$ (with $1<{\alpha}<2$) and related ${\Lambda}$-coalescents. If $T^{(n)}$ denotes the length of an external branch of the $n$-coalescent, we prove the convergence of…

We derive the asymptotic distribution of the total length $L_n$ of a $\operatorname {Beta}(2-\alpha,\alpha)$-coalescent tree for $1<\alpha<2$, starting from $n$ individuals. There are two regimes: If $\alpha\le1/2(1+\sqrt{5})$, then $L_n$…

We consider a ${\Lambda}$-coalescent and we study the asymptotic behavior of the total length $L^{(n)}_{ext}$ of the external branches of the associated $n$-coalescent. For Kingman coalescent, i.e. ${\Lambda}={\delta}_0$, the result is well…

$\Lambda$-coalescents model genealogies of samples of individuals from a large population by means of a family tree whose branches have lengths. The tree's leaves represent the individuals, and the lengths of the adjacent edges indicate the…

We present approximation methods which lead to law of large numbers and fluctuation results for functionals of $\Lambda$-coalescents, both in the dust-free case and in the case with a dust component. Our focus is on the tree length (or…

We give the asymptotic distribution of the length of partial coalescent trees for Beta and related coalescents. This allows us to give the asymptotic distribution of the number of (neutral) mutations in the partial tree. This is a first…

In the Kingman coalescent tree the length of order $r$ is defined as the sum of the lengths of all branches that support $r$ leaves. For $r=1$ these branches are external, while for $r\ge2$ they are internal and carry a subtree with $r$…

In mathematical population genetics, it is well known that one can represent the genealogy of a population by a tree, which indicates how the ancestral lines of individuals in the population coalesce as they are traced back in time. As the…

This article shows the asymptotics of distributions of various functionals of the Beta$(2-\alpha,\alpha)$ $n$-coalescent process with $1<\alpha<2$ when $n$ goes to infinity. This process is a Markov process taking {values} in the set of…

Representation of coalescent process using pruning of trees has been used by Goldschmidt and Martin for the Bolthausen-Sznitman coalescent and by Abraham and Delmas for the $\beta(3/2,1/2)$-coalescent. By considering a pruning procedure on…

Considering a random binary tree with $n$ labelled leaves, we use a pruning procedure on this tree in order to construct a $\beta(3/2,1/2)$-coalescent process. We also use the continuous analogue of this construction, i.e. a pruning…

We study tree lengths in $\Lambda$-coalescents without a dust component from a sample of $n$ individuals. For the total length of all branches and the total length of all external branches we present laws of large numbers in full…

We derive the asymptotic behavior of the total, active and inactive branch lengths of the seed bank coalescent, when the size of the initial sample grows to infinity. Those random variables have important applications for populations…

For a finite measure $\varLambda$ on $[0,1]$, the $\varLambda$-coalescent is a coalescent process such that, whenever there are $b$ clusters, each $k$-tuple of clusters merges into one at rate…

Leaves of vascular plants are arranged regularly around stems, a phenomenon known as phyllotaxis. A constant angle between two successive leaves is called divergence angle. On the one side, the divergence angle $\alpha_0$ of an initial…

We study the number of collisions $X_n$ of an exchangeable coalescent with multiple collisions ($\Lambda$-coalescent) which starts with $n$ particles and is driven by rates determined by a finite characteristic measure $\nu({\rm…

We study a class of coalescents derived from a sampling procedure out of N i.i.d. Pareto(alpha) random variables, normalized by their sum, including beta-size-biasing on total length effects (beta < alpha). Depending on the range of alpha,…

In the critical beta-splitting model of a random $n$-leaf binary tree, leaf-sets are recursively split into subsets, and a set of $m$ leaves is split into subsets containing $i$ and $m-i$ leaves with probabilities proportional to…

In the critical beta-splitting model of a random $n$-leaf rooted tree, clades are recursively split into sub-clades, and a clade of $m$ leaves is split into sub-clades containing $i$ and $m-i$ leaves with probabilities $\propto 1/(i(m-i))$.…
