Abstract

Let {Z(t);t≥0} be a continuous-time branching process. There is a normalizing function γt such that Z(t)γt converges almost surely to a random variable. In this paper, we obtain a local limit theorem for {Z(t);t≥0}, which refers to the asymptotic behaviour of P(Z(t)=kt) with limt→∞ktγt=x and x>0. This expands the existing results of the discrete-time branching processes.
