We provide scaling limits for the block counting process and the fixation line of $\Lambda$-coalescents as the initial state $n$ tends to infinity under the assumption that the measure $\Lambda$ on $[0,1]$ satisfies…
We study the block counting process and the fixation line of exchangeable coalescents. Formulas for the infinitesimal rates of both processes are provided. It is shown that the block counting process is Siegmund dual to the fixation line.…
The block counting process and the fixation line of the Bolthausen-Sznitman coalescent are analyzed. Spectral decompositions for their generators and transition probabilities are provided leading to explicit expressions for functionals such…
We prove several limit theorems that relate coalescent processes to continuous-state branching processes. Some of these theorems are stated in terms of the so-called generalized Fleming-Viot processes, which describe the evolution of a…
The $\X$-coalescent processes were initially studied by M\"ohle and Sagitov (2001), and introduced by Schweinsberg (2000) in their full generality. They arise in the mathematical population genetics as the complete class of scaling limits…
We study the frequency process $f_1$ of the block of 1 for a $\varXi$-coalescent $\varPi$ with dust. If $\varPi$ stays infinite, $f_1$ is a jump-hold process which can be expressed as a sum of broken parts from a stick-breaking procedure…
The Mittag-Leffler process $X=(X_t)_{t\ge 0}$ is introduced. This Markov process has the property that its marginal random variables $X_t$ are Mittag-Leffler distributed with parameter $e^{-t}$, $t\in [0,\infty)$, and the semigroup…
We define a new class of $\Xi$-coalescents characterized by a possibly infinite measure over the non negative integers. We call them symmetric coalescents since they are the unique family of exchangeable coalescents satisfying a symmetry…
In this work, we study general Dirichlet coalescents, which are a family of Xi-coalecents constructed from i.i.d mass partitions, and are an extension of the symmetric coalescent. This class of models is motivated by population models with…
The Beta coalescents are stochastic processes modeling the genealogy of a population. They appear as the rescaled limits of the genealogical trees of numerous stochastic population models. In this article, we take interest in the number of…
Let $S$ be the random walk obtained from "coin turning" with some sequence $\{p_n\}_{n\ge 1}$, as introduced in [6]. In this paper we investigate the scaling limits of $S$ in the spirit of the classical Donsker invariance principle, both…
We quantify the manner in which the beta coalescent $\Pi=\{ \Pi(t), t\geq 0\},$ with parameters $a\in (0, 1),$ $b>0,$ comes down from infinity. Approximating $\Pi$ by its restriction $\Pi^n$ to $[n]\:= \{1, \ldots, n\},$ the suitably…
We consider the number of blocks involved in the last merger of a $\Lambda$-coalescent started with $n$ blocks. We give conditions under which, as $n \to \infty$, the sequence of these random variables a) is tight, b) converges in…
In this paper we are concerned with a family of $N$-urn branching processes, where some particles are put into $N$ urns initially and then each particle gives birth to several new particles in some urn when dies. This model includes the…
A scaling theory is developed for diffusion-limited cluster aggregation in a porous medium, where the primary particles and clusters stick irreversibly to the walls of the pore space as well as to each other. Three scaling regimes are…
In this paper we obtain scaling limits of $\Lambda$-coalescents near time zero under a regularly varying assumption. In particular this covers the case of Kingman's coalescent and beta coalescents. The limiting processes are coalescents…
We consider an infinite-dimensional stochastic clustering model on $\mathbb{R}$. In discrete time, each point of a unit-intensity simple point process moves halfway toward either of its left or right neighbors, chosen uniformly at random.…
We propose that the finite size of the Kondo screening cloud, xi_K, can be probed by measuring the charge quantization in a one-dimensional system coupled to a small quantum dot. When the chemical potential in the system is varied at zero…
Let $K_n$ denote the number of types of a sample of size $n$ taken from an exchangeable coalescent process ($\Xi$-coalescent) with mutation. A distributional recursion for the sequence $(K_n)_{n\in{\mathbb N}}$ is derived. If the coalescent…
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…
