Asympotic behavior of the total length of external branches for Beta-coalescents
We consider a Λ-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. Λ = δ0, the result is well known and is useful, together with the total length L , for Fu and Li’s test of neutrality of mutations. For a large family of measures Λ, including Beta(2 − α, α) with 0 < α < 1, Möhle has ...
متن کاملOn the external branches of coalescents with multiple collisions
A recursion for the joint moments of the external branch lengths for coalescents with multiple collisions (Λ-coalescents) is provided. This recursion is used to derive asymptotic results as the sample size n tends to infinity for the joint moments of the external branch lengths and for the moments of the total external branch length of the Bolthausen–Sznitman coalescent. These asymptotic result...
متن کاملOn asymptotics of the beta-coalescents
We show that the total number of collisions in the exchangeable coalescent process driven by the beta (1, b) measure converges in distribution to a 1-stable law, as the initial number of particles goes to infinity. The stable limit law is also shown for the total branch length of the coalescent tree. These results were known previously for the instance b = 1, which corresponds to the Bolthausen...
متن کامل“the effect of risk aversion on the demand for life insurance: the case of iranian life insurance market”
abstract: about 60% of total premium of insurance industry is pertained?to life policies in the world; while the life insurance total premium in iran is less than 6% of total premium in insurance industry in 2008 (sigma, no 3/2009). among the reasons that discourage the life insurance industry is the problem of adverse selection. adverse selection theory describes a situation where the inf...
15 صفحه اولOn hitting probabilities of beta coalescents and absorption times of coalescents that come down from infinity
Let X = (Xk)k=0,1,... denote the jump chain of the block counting process of the Λ-coalescent with Λ = β(2 − α, α) being the beta distribution with parameter α ∈ (0, 2). A solution for the hitting probability h(n,m) that the chain X ever visits the state m, conditional that it starts in the state X0 = n, is obtained via an analytic method based on generating functions. For α ∈ (1, 2) the result...
