摘要
Given a supercritical Galton-Watson process {Z(n)} and a positive sequence {epsilon(n}) we study the limiting behaviors of P(S-Zn /Z(n) >= epsilon(n)) with sums S-n of independent and identically distributed random variables X-i and m = E[Z(1)]. We assume that we are in the Schroder case with EZ(1) log Z(1) < infinity and X-1 is in the domain of attraction of an alpha-stable law with 0 < alpha < 2. As a by-product, when Z(1) is subexponentially distributed, we further obtain the convergence rate of Z(n+1)/Z(n) to m as n -> infinity.
