Extremal Process of Last Progeny Modified Branching Random Walks

Abstract

We consider a last progeny modified branching random walk, in which the position of each particle at the last generation $n$ is modified by an i.i.d. copy of a random variable $Y$. Depending on the asymptotic properties of the tail of $Y$, we describe the asymptotic behaviour of the extremal process of this model as $n\to \infty$.
