This provides a dual construction of the pruning at nodes of CB introduced by the authors in a previous paper. This construction is a natural way to model neutral mutation. Using exponential formula, we compute the probability of extinction of the original type population in a critical or sub-critical quadratic branching, conditionally on the non extinction of the total population.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2007-10-15T09:59:12.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "continuous state branching process", "branching mechanism", "original type population", "model neutral mutation", "immigration depends" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009AnIHP..45..226A" } } }
