Abstract We consider a multitype critical branching process Zn, n = 0, 1,…, in an i.i.d. random environment. Let Zm,n be the number of particles in this process at time m having descendants at time n. A limit theorem is proved for the logarithm of Znt,n at moments nt,0 ≤ t ≤ 1, conditioned on the survival of the process Zn up to moment n when n → ∞.

Abstract A critical branching process {Zk, k = 0, 1, 2, ...} in a random environment is considered. A conditional functional limit theorem for the properly scaled process {log Zpu, 0 ≤ u < ∞} is established under the assumptions that Zn > 0 and p ≪ n. It is shown that the limiting process is a Lévy process conditioned to stay nonnegative. The proof of this result is based on a limit theorem describing the distribution of the initial part of the trajectories of a driftless random walk conditioned to stay nonnegative.

In this paper, we consider a nearly critical branching process with immigration. We obtain the rate of convergence in central limit theorem for nearly critical branching processes with immigration.

Continuing the work in Bertoin (2011) we study the distribution of the maximal number X * k of offspring amongst all individuals in a critical Galton‒Watson process started with k ancestors, treating the case when the reproduction law has a regularly varying tail F̅ with index −α for α &gt; 2 (and, hence, finite variance). We show that X * k suitably normalized converges in distribution to a Fréchet law with shape parameter α/2; this contrasts sharply with the case 1&lt; α&lt;2 when the variance is infinite. More generally, we obtain a weak limit theorem for the offspring sequence ranked in decreasing order, in terms of atoms of a certain doubly stochastic Poisson measure.

AbstractWe investigate a multitype critical branching process in an i.i.d. random environment. A functional limit theorem is proved for the logarithm of the number of particles in the process at moments nt, 0 ≤ t ≤ 1, conditioned on its survival up to moment n → ∞.
