A new family of Markov branching trees: the alpha-gamma model.
We introduce the notion of a restricted exchangeable partition of . We obtain integral representations, consider associated fragmentations, embeddings into continuum random trees and convergence to such limit trees. In particular, we deduce from the general theory developed here a limit result conjectured previously for Ford’s alpha model and its extension, the alpha-gamma model, where restricted exchangeability arises naturally.
