Local properties for $1$-dimensional critical branching L\'{e}vy process

Abstract

Consider a one dimensional critical branching L\'{e}vy process $((Z_t)_{t\geq 0}, \mathbb {P}_x)$. Assume that the offspring distribution either has finite second moment or belongs to the domain of attraction to some $\alpha$-stable distribution with $\alpha\in (1, 2)$, and that the underlying L\'{e}vy process $(\xi_t)_{t\geq 0}$ is non-lattice and has finite $2+\delta^*$ moment for some $\delta^*>0$. We first prove that $$t^{\frac{1}{\alpha-1}}\left(1- \mathbb{E}_{\sqrt{t}y}\left(\exp\left\{-\frac{1}{t^{\frac{1}{\alpha-1}-\frac{1}{2}}}\int h(x) Z_t(\mathrm{d}x) -\frac{1}{t^{\frac{1}{\alpha-1}}} \int g\left(\frac{x}{\sqrt{t}}\right)Z_t(\mathrm{d}x)\right\}\right)\right)$$ converges as $t\to\infty$ for any non-negative bounded Lipschtitz function $g$ and any non-negative directly Riemann integrable function $h$ of compact support. Then for any $y\in \R$ and bounded Borel set of positive Lebesgue measure with its boundary having zero Lebesgue measure, under a higher moment condition on $\xi$, we find the decay rate of the probability $\mathbb {P}_{\sqrt{t}y}(Z_t(A)>0)$. As an application, we prove some convergence results for $Z_t$ under the conditional law $\mathbb {P}_{\sqrt{t}y}(\cdot| Z_t(A)>0).$
