Abstract:  

Self-catalytic branching Brownian motions (SBBM) are a class of one-dimensional branching Brownian motions that incorporate pairwise catalytic branchings, triggered by the intersection local times of particle pairs. These processes naturally arise as the moment duals of certain reaction-diffusion equations perturbed by multiplicative space-time white noise. For the subcritical case of the catalytic branching mechanism, we construct the SBBM allowing for an infinite number of initial particles. Additionally, we establish the coming down from infinity (CDI) property for these systems and characterize their CDI rates. This is based on ongoing joint research with Haojie Hou.
