Abstract
In this article, we consider maximum likelihood estimators of the initial probabilities and the mean of a supercritical Galton-Watson process; we find for these estimators, as well as for the Lotka-Nagaev estimator of the mean, the asymptotic distributions and deduce confidence intervals. As these results hold even if the independence between individuals of the same generation is not satisfied, application to living populations may be considered.
