摘要
Given a branching random walk, let M-n be the minimum position of any member of the nth generation. We calculate EMn to within O(1) and prove exponential tail bounds for P{vertical bar M-n - EMn vertical bar > x}, under quite general conditions on the branching random walk. In particular, together with work by Bramson [Z. Wahrsch. Verw. Gebiete 45 (1978) 89-108], our results fully characterize the possible behavior of EMn when the branching random walk has bounded branching and step size.
