In this paper, we study the asymptotic behaviours of a critical branching random walk in $\mathbb{R}^d$ under the assumption that the offspring distribution belongs to the domain of attraction of an $\alpha$-stable law with $\alpha\in(1,2]$, and that the jump distribution has a finite $\frac{2\alpha}{\alpha-1}$-th moment. First, we establish the precise decay rate for the tail probability of the all-time maximal displacement $M^d$. Next, we investigate the maximal displacement $M_n^d$ at generation $n$ and prove a conditional limit theorem for the distribution of $M_n^d$ given that the process survives up to generation $n$. These results extend the corresponding 1-dimensional results of Lalley and Shao (2015) to the case $d\ge2$. Finally, we study the asymptotic behaviour of the total progeny $\zeta$. In particular, we show that, conditioned on the event $\{M^d\ge x\}$, $\zeta$ converges in distribution under an appropriate normalization. This result reveals a quantitative relationship between the maximal displacement and the total progeny size.
In this paper, we study a bootstrap percolation process on the finite triangular grid $\mathfrak{T}_n$ of side length $n$. We say that a subset $\eta$ of points in $\mathfrak{T}_n$ percolates if the final configuration, starting from $\eta$, is the whole grid $\mathfrak{T}_n$. A basis of size $n$ is then a subset of po...

We consider a stochastic process on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for $d \geq 1$. Given a translation invariant and ergodic starting configuration of finite clusters, each cluster $C$ performs a continuous time simple random walk with rate $|C|^{-\alpha}$. If it attempts to move to a vertex occupied by another cluster, it does not mo...

We consider the weight-dependent random connection model on a Poisson point process of intensity $\lambda$ on $\mathbb{R}\times(0,1)$ in which the vertices $(x,t)$ and $(y,s)$ are joined precisely when $(t\vee s)|x-y|\le\beta$. Points at distance $d$ are joined with probability $\min(1,\beta/d)^2$, the critical decay o...
We consider supercritical branching random walks (BRW) on countable groups $G$ and we prove that the asymptotic entropy of the empirical distributions of the BRW has a phase transition at $\rho_* = e^{h(\mu)}$, where $h(\mu)$ is the asymptotic entropy of the underlying random walk on $G$ with step distribution $\mu$. B...

We study the frog model on $\mathbb Z^d$ and on the discrete tori $\mathbb T_L^d$, $d\ge 2$, with a symmetric, translation-invariant, and heavy-tailed transition kernel satisfying \[ Q(x,y)\asymp |x-y|^{-(d+\alpha)}, \qquad \alpha>0. \] Starting from an i.i.d. Poisson$(\lambda)$ number of sleeping particles per site an...
For a Markov kernel $T$ with an invariant probability measure $\pi$, we give a self-contained proof of the Markov chain convergence theorem via a criterion called asymptotic equivalence with the target. It assumes two parts about the Lebesgue decompositions of $T^n_x$ and $\pi$ for every starting point $x$: 1.) asympto...
