The genealogy of a sample from a binary branching process
نویسنده
چکیده
At time 0, start a time-continuous binary branching process, where particles give birth to a single particle independently (at a possibly time-dependent rate) and die independently (at a possibly time-dependent and age-dependent rate). A particular case is the classical birth–death process. Stop this process at time T > 0. It is known that the tree spanned by the N tips alive at time T of the tree thus obtained (called reduced tree or coalescent tree) is a coalescent point process (CPP), which basically means that the depths of interior nodes are iid. Now select each of the N tips independently with probability y (Bernoulli sample). It is known that the tree generated by the selected tips, which we will call Bernoulli sampled CPP, is again a CPP. Now instead, select exactly k tips uniformly at random among the N tips

Connecting Yule Process, Bisection and Binary Search Tree via Martingales
We present new links between some remarkable martingales found in the study of the Binary Search Tree or of the bisection problem, looking at them on the probability space of a continuous time binary branching process.
متن کاملGenealogy of Catalytic Branching Models
We consider catalytic branching populations. They consist of a catalyst population evolving according to a critical binary branching process in continuous time with a constant branching rate and a reactant population with a branching rate proportional to the number of catalyst individuals alive. The reactant forms a process in random medium. We describe asymptotically the genealogy of catalytic...

متن کاملAsymptotic Genealogy of a Critical Branching Process by Lea Popovic
Consider a continuous-time binary branching process conditioned to have population size n at some time t , and with a chance p for recording each extinct individual in the process. Within the family tree of this process, we consider the smallest subtree containing the genealogy of the extant individuals together with the genealogy of the recorded extinct individuals. We introduce a novel repres...
