In these lectures, we give an account of certain recent developments of the theory of spatial branching processes. These developments lead to several fas cinating probabilistic objects, which combine spatial motion with a continuous branching phenomenon and are closely related to certain semilinear partial dif ferential equations. Our first objective is to give a short self-contained presentation of the measure valued branching processes called superprocesses, which have been studied extensively in the last twelve years. We then want to specialize to the important class of superprocesses with quadratic branching mechanism and to explain how a concrete and powerful representation of ... Read more

Reviews for Spatial Branching Processes, Random Snakes and Partial Differential Equations
"Concise and essentially self-contained… A very accessible text…written by a leading expert of the field… It provides a clear and precise presentation of several important aspects of the theory…developed over the recent years. There is no doubt that such a monograph will be used both by beginners to learn the theory and by experts as a reference text." ... Read more
