Branching Processes in Random Environment provides a unique and new approach to study branching processes in random environments. Branching processes in random environment are an important direction of the general theory of branching processes which, in turn, is a well-developed part of probability theory having various applications in physics and biology. There are several books devoted to the theory of branching processes; however, the theory of branching processes in random environments is not examined in-depth in those books. During the last two decades essential progress was achieved in this field in particular, due primarily to the authors' efforts.
- Features a unique and new approach to study branching processes in random environments
- Compares properties of branching processes in random environments with properties of ordinary random walks
- Enables finding the probability of survival of the critical and subcritical branching processes in random environments, as well as Yaglom-type limit theorems for the mentioned classes of processes
