Critical cluster cascades

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We consider a sequence of Poisson cluster point processes on mathbbRd: at step ninmathbbN0 of the construction, the cluster centers have intensity c/(n+1) for some c>0, and each cluster consists of the particles of a branching random walk up to generation n generated by a point process with mean 1. We show that this 'critical cluster cascade' converges weakly, and that either the limit point process equals the void process (extinction), or it has the same intensity c as the critical cluster cascade (persistence). We obtain persistence, if and only if the Palm version of the outgrown critical branching random walk is locally a.s. finite. This result allows us to give numerous examples for persistent critical cluster cascades.
