摘要
A supercritical bisexual Galton-Watson branching process with population-size-dependent mating is considered and some necessary and sufficient conditions for the almost sure and L-1-convergence of the suitably normalized process are given. Similar results for the underlying sequences of females and males are provided. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
