Heavy tailed branching process with immigration

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper we analyze a branching process with immigration defined recursively by Xt=θt∘Xt−1+BtX_t=θ_t\circ X_{t-1}+B_t for a sequence (Bt)(B_t) of i.i.d. random variables and random mappings θt∘x:=θt(x)=∑i=1xAi(t), θ_t\circ x:=θ_t(x)=\sum_{i=1}^xA_i^{(t)}, with (Ai(t))i∈N0(A_i^{(t)})_{i\in \mathbb{N}_0} being a sequence of N0\mathbb{N}_0-valued i.i.d. random variables independent of BtB_t. We assume that one of generic variables AA and BB has a regularly varying tail distribution. We identify the tail behaviour of the distribution of the stationary solution XtX_t. We also prove CLT for the partial sums that could be further generalized to FCLT. Finally, we also show that partial maxima have a Fréchet limiting distribution.
