Limit distributions for multitype branching processes of m -ary search trees

Brigitte Chauvin, Quansheng Liu, Nicolas Pouyanne (2014)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Let m 3 be an integer. The so-called m -ary search treeis a discrete time Markov chain which is very popular in theoretical computer science, modelling famous algorithms used in searching and sorting. This random process satisfies a well-known phase transition: when m 26 , the asymptotic behavior of the process is Gaussian, but for m 27 it is no longer Gaussian and a limit W D T of a complex-valued martingale arises. In this paper, we consider the multitype branching process which is the continuous time version...
