The Minimal Position of a Stable Branching Random Walk

Publication date 24 December 2017

Abstract: In this paper, a branching random walk

(V (x))

in the boundary case is studied, where the associated one dimensional random walk is in the domain of attraction of an

a l p h a -

stable law with

1 < a l p h a < 2

. Let

M_{n}

be the minimal position of

(V (x))

at generation

n

. We established an integral test to describe the lower limit of

M_{n} - f r a c 1 a l p h a l o g n

and a law of iterated logarithm for the upper limit of

M_{n} - (1 + f r a c 1 a l p h a) l o g n

.
