A leader-election procedure using records

Gerold Alsmeyer, Zakhar Kabluchko, Alexander Marynych

The study of the number of collisions in a Poisson-Dirichlet coalescent leads to the analysis of the following version of a stochastic leader-elec\-tion algorithm. Consider an infi…

Thin tails of fixed points of the nonhomogeneous smoothing transform

Gerold Alsmeyer, Piotr Dyszewski

For a given random sequence with nonzero and a.s. finite number of nonzero , the nonhomogeneous smoothing transform maps the law o…

Branching within branching II: Limit theorems

Gerold Alsmeyer, Sören Gröttrup

This continues work started in part I on a general branching-within-branching model for host-parasite co-evolution. Here we focus on asymptotic results for relevant processes in th…

Branching within branching I: The extinction problem

Gerold Alsmeyer, Sören Gröttrup

We consider a discrete-time host-parasite model for a population of cells which are colonized by proliferating parasites. The cell population grows like an ordinary Galton-Watson p…
