Critical multitype branching processes with infinite variance

Abstract

The exponential limit law for the critical multitype Bienaymé-Galton-Watson process is extended to a class of offspring distributions some or all of whose second moments are infinite. Several asymptotic consequences pertaining to transition probabilities and invariant measures are derived.
