Quenched law of large numbers for branching Brownian motion in a random medium

From MaRDI portal
Publication:731683




Abstract: We study a spatial branching model, where the underlying motion is d-dimensional (dge1) Brownian motion and the branching rate is affected by a random collection of reproduction suppressing sets dubbed mild obstacles. The main result of this paper is the quenched law of large numbers for the population for all dge1. We also show that the branching Brownian motion with mild obstacles spreads less quickly than ordinary branching Brownian motion by giving an upper estimate on its speed. When the underlying motion is an arbitrary diffusion process, we obtain a dichotomy for the quenched local growth that is independent of the Poissonian intensity. More general offspring distributions (beyond the dyadic one considered in the main theorems) as well as mild obstacle models for superprocesses are also discussed.
