Abstract
Abstract We consider a critical Galton – Watson branching process starting with N particles; the number of offsprings is supposed to have the distribution pk=(k + 1)−τ−(k + 2)−τ, k=0, 1, 2, … Limit distributions of the maximal tree size are obtained for the corresponding Galton – Watson forest with N trees and n non-root vertices as N, n → ∞, n/Nτ ⩾ C > 0.
期刊介绍:
The aim of this journal is to provide the latest information on the development of discrete mathematics in the former USSR to a world-wide readership. The journal will contain papers from the Russian-language journal Diskretnaya Matematika, the only journal of the Russian Academy of Sciences devoted to this field of mathematics. Discrete Mathematics and Applications will cover various subjects in the fields such as combinatorial analysis, graph theory, functional systems theory, cryptology, coding, probabilistic problems of discrete mathematics, algorithms and their complexity, combinatorial and computational problems of number theory and of algebra.
