Bellman–Harris branching processes with state-dependent immigration
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 July 2016
Abstract
We consider critical Bellman-Harris processes which admit an immigration component only in the state 0. The asymptotic behaviour of the probability of extinction and of the first two moments is investigated and a limit theorem is also proved.
