AbstractWe study the “Brownian snake” introduced by Le Gall, and also studied by Dynkin, Kuznetsov, Watanabe. We prove that Itô’s formula holds for a wide class of functionals. As a consequence, we give a new proof of the connections between the Brownian snake and super-Brownian motion. We also give a new definition of the Brownian snake as the solution of a well-posed martingale problem. Finally, we construct a modified Brownian snake whose lifetime is driven by a path-dependent stochastic equation. This process gives a representation of some super-processes.

We analyse the behaviour of supercritical super-Brownian motion with a barrier through the pathwise backbone embedding of Berestycki, Kyprianou and Murillo-Salas (2011). In particular, by considering existing results for branching Brownian motion due to Harris and Kyprianou (2006) and Maillard (2011), we obtain, with relative ease, conclusions regarding the growth in the right-most point in the support, analytical properties of the associated one-sided Fisher-Kolmogorov-Petrovskii-Piscounov wave equation, as well as the distribution of mass on the exit measure associated with the barrier.
