Abstract: If mathbfY is a standard Fleming-Viot process with constant mutation rate (in the infinitely many sites model) then it is well known that for each t>0 the measure mathbfYt is purely atomic with infinitely many atoms. However, Schmuland proved that there is a critical value for the mutation rate under which almost surely there are exceptional times at which mathbfY is a finite sum of weighted Dirac masses. In the present work we discuss the existence of such exceptional times for the generalized Fleming-Viot processes. In the case of Beta-Fleming-Viot processes with index alphain,]1,2[ we show that - irrespectively of the mutation rate and alpha - the number of atoms is almost surely always infinite. The proof combines a Pitman-Yor type representation with a disintegration formula, Lamperti's transformation for self-similar processes and covering results for Poisson point processes.
