7 Preface The purpose of this book is to give a unified treatment of the limit theory of branching processes. Since the publication of the important book of T E. Harris (Theory of Branching Processes, Springer, 1963) the subject has developed and matured significantly. Many of the classical limit laws are now known in their sharpest form, and there are new proofs that give insight into the results. Our work deals primarily with this decade, and thus has very little overlap with that of Harris. Only enough material is repeated to make the treatment essentially self-contained. For example, certain foundational questions on the construction of processes, to which we have nothing new to add, are not developed. There is a natural classification of branching processes according to their criticality condition, their time parameter, the single or multi-type particle cases, the Markovian or non-markovian character of the process, etc. We have tried to avoid the rather uneconomical and unenlightening approach of treating these categories independently, and by a series of similar but increasingly complicated techniques. The basic Galton-Watson process is developed in great detail in Chapters I and II. In the subsequent treatment of the continuous time (Markov and agedependent) cases in Chapters III and IV, we try wherever possible to reduce analogous questions to their Galton-Watson counterparts; and then concentrate on the genuinely new or different aspects of these processes. We hope that this gives the subject a more unified aspect. In our development we give a number of new proofs of known results; and also some new results which appear here for the first time. Although we have included a chapter on applications and special processes (Chapter VI), these are a reflection of our own interests, and there is no attempt to catalogue or even dent the great variety of special models in physics and biology that have been investigated in recent years. Rather, our emphasis is on the basic techniques, and it is our hope that this volume will bring the reader to the point where he can pursue the literature and his own research in the subject. In this connection we have included sections on complements and problems, which may suggest new work.
8 VIII Preface With the exception of Chapter V which deals with a finite number of distinct particle types, we have concentrated on single type processes. There is an extensive literature on branching processes on general state spaces which is outside the spirit and scope of this book. Readers interested in this subject are referred to the papers of Ikeda, Nagasawa, Watanabe, Jirina, Moyal, Mullikin, and Skorohod listed in the bibliography. The prerequisites for reading this book are analysis and probability at about the first year graduate level. The reader should, for example, have some familiarity with Markov chains at the level of K. L. Chung's book (Springer, 1967); the martingale theorem; renewal theory and analytical probability at the level of W. Feller, Vol. II (Wiley, 1966). Some of the more technical sections can be skipped over without impairing continuity. A possible sequence to follow at a first reading is Chapter I Chapter III, sections 1-8, Chapter IV Chapter V, omitting section 8, Chapter VI, selections according to taste. Acknowledgements We want to express our appreciation to our collegues and teachers J. Chover, T. Harris, A. Joffe, S. Karlin, H. Kesten, and F. Spitzer for their help and influence on our work. Their contributions to the theory of branching processes permeate these pages. We also wish to extend our sincere thanks to J. L. Doob, as editor of this series, for his counsel and valuable sl.lggestions. Many others have given us assistance. J. Lamperti and J. Williamson read parts of the manuscript and made helpful comments. Among our former and present students, M. Goldstein prepared the original seminar notes from which the book started; J. Foster, K. B. Erickson, W. Esty, and R. Alexander corrected vast numbers of errors; W. Esty prepared the bibliography and index and helped extensively in the preparation of the final manuscript. Judy Brickner did a superb job of typing the manuscript, and then cheerfully saw it through revisions and re-revisions. Finally, we would like to thank our wives for their moral support throughout this long project. Madison, Wisconsin * September, 1971 Krishna B. Athreya. Peter E. Ney * K. Athreya is now at the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore, India.
