Abstract

We investigate a multi-type Galton-Watson process in a random environment generated by a sequence of independent identically distributed random variables. Suppose that the associated random walk constructed by the logarithms of the Perron roots of the reproduction mean matrices has negative mean and assuming some additional conditions, we find the asymptotics of the survival probability at time $n$ as $n \to \infty$.

Highlights

  • Branching processes in random environment are natural generalization of simple Galton-Watson processes

  • A branching process in random environment was first considered by Smith and Wilkinson (11)

  • A lot of papers is devoted to the study of the survival probability of single-type branching processes in random environment (see, for example, (1)-(9))
