Abstract:
We consider branching processes with immigration evolving in an i.i.d. random environment.
Assuming that immigration is not allowed when there are no individuals in the population we investigate in [1, 2] the tail distribution of the so-called life period of the subcritical and critical processes, i.e., the length of the time interval between the moment when the process is initiated by a positive number of particles and the moment when there are no individuals in the population for the first time.
We also investigate in [3] a branching process with immigration an i.i.d. random environment, in which one immigrant arrives at each generation. Let $\mathcal{A}_{i}(n)$ be the event that all individuals alive at time $n$ are descendants of the immigrant which joined the population at time $i.$ Assuming that the process is subcritical we investigate, as $n\rightarrow \infty $ the asymptotic behavior of the probability of the event $\mathcal{A}_{i}(n)$ when $i$ is either fixed, or the difference $n-i$ is fixed, or $\min(i,n-i)\rightarrow \infty .$
