As a consequence, we obtain the weak limit law of the centered and rescaled total external length. The latter extends results obtained by Dhersin & M\\\"ohle \\cite{DM12}. An application to population genetics dealing with the total number of mutations in the genealogical tree is also given.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-02-06T18:20:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "bolthausen-sznitman coalescent", "total internal length", "weak limit law", "rescaled total external length", "weak law" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1302.1463K" } } }
