Another look at the finite mean supercritical Bienaymé–Galton–Watson process
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 July 2016
Abstract
Let {Zn} be a finite mean supercritical Bienaymé– Galton–Watson process. It is known that there exist norming constants {Cn} such that {Zn/Cn} converges almost surely to a limit W. Also there is a whole literature concerning properties of {Cn} and W. We attempt a new approach to the limit theory of {Zn} by relating it to the theory of sums of independent and identically distributed random variables.
