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 length of an external branch in the Beta-coalescent
In this paper, we consider Beta(2 − α, α) (with 1 < α < 2) and related Λcoalescents. If T (n) denotes the length of an external branch of the n-coalescent, we prove the convergence of nT (n) when n tends to ∞, and give the limit. To this aim, we give asymptotics for the number σ of collisions which occur in the n-coalescent until the end of the chosen external branch, and for the block counting...
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 کاملSmall-time behavior of beta coalescents
For a finite measure Λ on [0, 1], the Λ-coalescent is a coalescent process such that, whenever there are b clusters, each k-tuple of clusters merges into one at rate ∫ 1 0 x(1− x) Λ(dx). It has recently been shown that if 1 < α < 2, the Λ-coalescent in which Λ is the Beta(2−α, α) distribution can be used to describe the genealogy of a continuous-state branching process (CSBP) with an α-stable b...
متن کاملBeta-coalescents and continuous stable random trees
Coalescents with multiple collisions, also known as Λ-coalescents, were introduced by Pitman and Sagitov in 1999. These processes describe the evolution of particles that undergo stochastic coagulation in such a way that several blocks can merge at the same time to form a single block. In the case that the measure Λ is the Beta(2 − α, α) distribution, they are also known to describe the genealo...
