Haldane's asymptotics for supercritical branching processes in an iid random environment

Florin Boenkost, Götz Kersting

Branching processes in a random environment are natural generalisations of Galton-Watson processes. In this paper we analyse the asymptotic decay of the survival probability for a…

On the genealogical structure of critical branching processes in a varying environment

Götz Kersting

Critical branching processes in a varying environment behave much the same as critical Galton-Watson processes. In this note we like to confirm this finding with regard to the unde…

Defective Galton-Watson processes in a varying environment

Götz Kersting, Carmen Minuesa

We study an extension of the so-called defective Galton-Watson processes obtained by allowing the offspring distribution to change over the generations. Thus, in these processes, t…

Site Frequency Spectrum of the Bolthausen-Sznitman Coalescent

Götz Kersting, Arno Siri-Jégousse, Alejandro H. Wences

We derive explicit formulas for the two first moments of he site frequency spectrum of the Bolthausen-Sznitman coalescent along with some precise an…

External branch lengths of -coalescents without a dust component

Christina S. Diehl, Götz Kersting

-coalescents model genealogies of samples of individuals from a large population by means of a family tree whose branches have lengths. The tree's leaves represent the individua…

Tree lengths for general -coalescents and the asymptotic site frequency spectrum around the Bolthausen-Sznitman coalescent

Christina S. Diehl, Götz Kersting

We study tree lengths in -coalescents without a dust component from a sample of individuals. For the total length of all branches and the total length of all external branch…
