 Title: On the Maximum of a Branching Process Conditioned on the Total Progeny Authors: Kerbashev, Tzvetozar Keywords: Bienaymé-Galton-Watson Branching ProcessMaximumTotal ProgenyLeft-Continuous Random WalkRandom Rooted Labeled Trees Issue Date: 1999 Publisher: Institute of Mathematics and Informatics Bulgarian Academy of Sciences Citation: Serdica Mathematical Journal, Vol. 25, No 2, (1999), 141p-176p Abstract: The maximum M of a critical Bienaymé-Galton-Watson process conditioned on the total progeny N is studied. Imbedding of the process in a random walk is used. A limit theorem for the distribution of M as N → ∞ is proved. The result is trasferred to the non-critical processes. A corollary for the maximal strata of a random rooted labeled tree is obtained. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10525/443 ISSN: 1310-6600 Appears in Collections: Volume 25 Number 2
