Abstract In this first part of the paper we find the asymptotic formulas for the probabilities of large deviations of the sequence defined by the random difference equation Y n+1=A n Y n + B n , where A 1, A 2, … are independent identically distributed random variables and B n may depend on { ( A k , B k ) , 0 ⩽ k < n } $ \{(A_k,B_k),0\leqslant k \lt n\} $ for any n≥1. In the second part of the paper this results are applied to the large deviations of branching processes in a random environment.

AbstractThe paper is concerned with subcritical branching process in random environment. It is assumed that the moment-generating function of steps of the associated random walk is equal to 1 for some positive value of the argument. Functional limit theorems for sizes of various generations and passage times to various levels are put forward.

Abstract We consider a multitype critical branching process Zn, n = 0, 1,…, in an i.i.d. random environment. Let Zm,n be the number of particles in this process at time m having descendants at time n. A limit theorem is proved for the logarithm of Znt,n at moments nt,0 ≤ t ≤ 1, conditioned on the survival of the process Zn up to moment n when n → ∞.

International audience Let $Z_n,n=0,1,\ldots,$ be a branching process evolving in the random environment generated by a sequence of iid generating functions $f_0(s),f_1(s),\ldots,$ and let $S_0=0$, $S_k=X_1+ \ldots +X_k,k \geq 1$, be the associated random walk with $X_i=\log f_{i-1}^{\prime}(1), \tau (m,n)$ be the left-most point of minimum of $\{S_k,k \geq 0 \}$ on the interval $[m,n]$, and $T=\min \{ k:Z_k=0\}$. Assuming that the associated random walk satisfies the Doney condition $P(S_n > 0) \to \rho \in (0,1), n \to \infty$, we prove (under the quenched approach) conditional limit theorems, as $n \to \infty$, for the distribution of $Z_{nt}, Z_{\tau (0,nt)}$, and $Z_{\tau (nt,n)}, t \in (0,1)$, given $T=n$. It is shown that the form of the limit distributions essentially depends on the location of $\tau (0,n)$ with respect to the point $nt$.

Abstract We study the asymptotic behavior of the survival probability of a multi-type branching process in a random environment. In the one-dimensional situation, the class of processes considered corresponds to the strongly subcritical case. We also prove a conditional limit theorem describing the distribution of the number of particles in the process given its survival for a long time.

Abstract A critical branching process {Zk, k = 0, 1, 2, ...} in a random environment is considered. A conditional functional limit theorem for the properly scaled process {log Zpu, 0 ≤ u < ∞} is established under the assumptions that Zn > 0 and p ≪ n. It is shown that the limiting process is a Lévy process conditioned to stay nonnegative. The proof of this result is based on a limit theorem describing the distribution of the initial part of the trajectories of a driftless random walk conditioned to stay nonnegative.
