The Limit Behavior of Dual Markov Branching Processes
نویسندگان
چکیده
A dualMarkov branching process (DMBP) is by definition a Siegmund’s predual of some Markov branching process (MBP). Such a process does exist and is uniquely determined by the so-called dual-branching property. Its q-matrix Q is derived and proved to be regular and monotone. Several equivalent definitions for a DMBP are given. The criteria for transience, positive recurrence, strong ergodicity, and the Feller property are established. The invariant distributions are given by a clear formulation with a geometric limit law.

Central Limit Theorem in Multitype Branching Random Walk
A discrete time multitype (p-type) branching random walk on the real line R is considered. The positions of the j-type individuals in the n-th generation form a point process. The asymptotic behavior of these point processes, when the generation size tends to infinity, is studied. The central limit theorem is proved.
متن کاملReduced Branching Processes with Very Heavy Tails
The reduced Markov branching process is a stochastic model for the genealogy of an unstructured biological population. Its limit behavior in the critical case is well studied for theZolotarev–Slack regularity parameterα ∈ (0, 1]. We turn to the case of very heavytailed reproduction distribution α = 0 assuming that Zubkov’s regularity condition holds with parameter β ∈ (0,∞). Our main result giv...
متن کاملExtinction times in Multitype Markov Branching Processes
In this paper, a distributional approximation to the time to extinction in a subcritical continuous-time Markov branching process is derived. A limit theorem for this distribution is established and the error in the approximation is quantified. The accuracy of the approximation is illustrated in an epidemiological example. Since Markov branching processes serve as approximations to nonlinear ep...
متن کاملLimit Theorems for Supercritical Markov Branching Processes with Non-homogeneous Poisson Immigration
This paper deals with Markov branching processes allowing immigration at random time points described by a non-homogeneous Poisson process. This class of processes generalizes a classical model proposed by Sevastyanov, which included a time-homogeneous Poisson immigration. The proposed model finds applications in cell kinetics studies. Limit theorems are obtained in the supercritical case. Some...
متن کاملSelf-similar branching Markov chains
The main purpose of this work is to study self-similar branching Markov chains. First we will construct such a process. Then we will establish certain Limit Theorems using the theory of self-similar Markov processes.
