Sesqui-type branching processes

open access: yesStochastic Processes and Their Applications, 2018
We consider branching processes consisting of particles (individuals) of two types (type and type ) in which only particles of type have offspring, proving estimates for the survival probability and the (tail of) the distribution of the total number of

Branching Processes

open access: yes, 2009
Vejitveni proces je matematični model razvoja in rasti neke populacije. Opazujemo lahko razvoj populacije po generacijah ali pa po časovnih intervalih. Takim vejitvenim procesom pravimo časovno odvisni. Obravnavali smo jih s pomočjo rodovne funkcije in s

Branching processes. II

Journal of Soviet Mathematics, 1987
This is a survey article of that literature of classical branching process theory which has appeared since \textit{B. A. Sevast'yanov}'s survey in ibid. 1968, 5-48 (1968; Zbl 0196.189). By ''classical'' is meant: a finite number of types, independence of evolutionary lines, reproduction law homogeneous through time.

Integrals of branching processes

Biometrika, 1967
SUMMARY For age-dependent branching processes X(t) integrals of the type Y(t) = f X(s) ds are studied. These may be looked upon as a measure of the amount of toxins produced in time (0, t) by a colony of bacteria. An integral equation for the moment generating function of {X(t), Y(t)} is deduced and used to analyze the asymptotic behaviour of the two ...

Computerization of the branching process

Behavioral Science, 1967
The branching process had its origin in Galton's curiosity about the extinction of family names; the mathematics developed for this original purpose has since found many applications in physical as well as social science. The present paper gives an elementary summary of the theory in the iterated function first developed, and then translates this ...

Branching Bandit Processes

Probability in the Engineering and Informational Sciences, 1988
A set of niarms of typei, i= 1,…, L, is available. A pull of arm of typeioccupies a duration Viat the end of which a reward Ciand Ni1,…, NiLnew arms are obtained, while all other arms are frozen. A Gittins priority order of types is obtained and shown to yield the maximal discounted reward from this branching process of arms.

On an Explosive Branching Process

Theory of Probability & Its Applications, 1996
Summary: We consider a Markov branching process \(\{Z(t)\), \(t \in [0, \tau)\}\) that explodes at a random time \(\tau\). [This means that \(P\{Z(t)=\infty \}>0\) for some \(t\in (0,\infty)\), and \(\tau:=\inf \{t:Z(t)=\infty \}\)]. We estimate the value of \(Z(t)\) for \(t\) close to \(\tau\).
