Consequences of Assumption (S): Lemma lem:consequenceM and Corollary cor:SM #
Work package WP3 of the bridge plan. Source lines 1182ā1251 (Lemma 3.6, proof step P04) and
1256ā1365 (Corollary 3.7, proof step P05). Notation: šÆ ~ bienayme μ, P_k = P(Ā· | G_k(šÆ) = 1)
(cond), Ψ_m(x) = walkProb μ m x, supWalk μ m = sup_x Ψ_m(x).
The decomposition of Assumption (S) #
A decomposition Ļ (Skeleton) is a law of (šÆ, C, šÆ^{(1)}, ā¦, šÆ^{(L)}) with first marginal
P_k, conditionally i.i.d. trees given (C, L) and |šÆ| = C + ā |šÆ^{(i)}|.
lintegral_skeleton is the resulting forest formula
E[h(C, L, ā |šÆ^{(i)}|)] = ā_{c, ā} P(C = c, L = ā) ā_q P(|š¢_ā| = q) h(c, ā, q), and
lintegral_skeleton_le compares with E[L]; the empty forest ā = 0 needs no special
treatment there.

Forests of i.i.d. trees: sums over tuples and lists #

Integrals over a decomposition Ļ #
The conditional forest structure of a decomposition (Assumption (S), source lines
1196ā1202): for every h(c, ā, q),
E[h(C, L, ā_{i ⤠L} |šÆ^{(i)}|)] = ā_{c, ā} P(C = c, L = ā) ā_q P(|š¢_ā| = q) h(c, ā, q).
Comparison: if ā_q P(|š¢_ā| = q) h(c, ā, q) ⤠K ā for all c, ā, then
E[h(C, L, ā |šÆ^{(i)}|)] ⤠K E[L] (the empty forest ā = 0 contributes only through the
hypothesis at ā = 0).
Under a decomposition, a function of the size of the marked tree integrates as a function of
C + ā_{i ⤠L} |šÆ^{(i)}| (source line 1198).
Core estimates for one decomposition #
a_M ⤠C a_{āM/8ā} and a_n ⤠C a_N for n ⤠2N (regular variation).
Unweighted core estimate (proof of lem:consequenceM, source lines 1208ā1224): for a
decomposition Ļ of P(Ā· | G(šÆ) = 1) and M ā„ 8,
P(|šÆ| > M/4 | G(šÆ) = 1) ⤠P(C > M/8) + (C' / a_M) E[L].
Bridge-weighted core estimate (proof of lem:consequenceM, source lines 1226ā1250, in
numerator form, correction F3): for a decomposition Ļ of P(Ā· | G(šÆ) = 1), M ā„ 8,
n ℠2M and a time shift j ⤠1,
E[sup_x ĪØ_{n-j-|šÆ|}(x) 1{|šÆ| > M/4} | G(šÆ) = 1] ⤠P(C > M/8) + C' E[L] / (a_M a_n).
On {C ⤠M/8} the forest has more than M/8 vertices and the forest estimate is applied at time
N = n - j - C ā„ n/2 (no ratio ĪØ_{n-c}(-1)/ĪØ_n(-1) is used).
Lemma lem:consequenceM #

Lemma lem:consequenceM, first assertion (source lines 1182ā1224, P04): under
Assumption (S), P(|šÆ| > M_n/4 | G_{k_n}(šÆ) = 1) ā 0 along admissible sizes.
Lemma lem:consequenceM, second assertion, sup_x form (source lines 1226ā1250):
under Assumption (S), uniformly in a time shift j ⤠1,
a_n E[sup_x ĪØ_{n-j-|šÆ|}(x) 1{|šÆ| > M_n/4} | G_{k_n}(šÆ) = 1] ā 0 along admissible sizes.
Lemma lem:consequenceM, second assertion, numerator form (source lines 1226ā1250;
plan WP3.3, correction F3): under Assumption (S), for every ε > 0, eventually along admissible
sizes, for every time shift j ⤠1 and every endpoint selector e,
a_n E[ĪØ_{n-j-|šÆ|}(e(šÆ)) 1{|šÆ| > M_n/4} | G_{k_n}(šÆ) = 1] ⤠ε. Dividing by
ĪØ_n(-1) ā„ c / a_n gives the paper's form at j = 0.
Lemma lem:consequenceM, second assertion, the paper's form (source line 1189,
eq:record):
under Assumption (S),
E[sup_x ĪØ_{n-|šÆ|}(x) / ĪØ_n(-1) 1{|šÆ| > M_n/4} | G_{k_n}(šÆ) = 1] ā 0 along admissible sizes
(at admissible n, ĪØ_n(-1) ā„ c / a_n > 0).
Corollary cor:SM #
ν(s ā© t) = ν(s) ν(t | s) in ā, for a finite measure on plane trees.
ā« 1_s f dν = ν(s) ā« f dν(Ā· | s) in ā, for a finite measure on plane trees.
Assembly of Assumption (M) from bounds on large marked trees (the argument of source
lines 1286ā1311, in numerator form): if P(G_{k_n}(šÆ), |šÆ| > M_n) = o(Ļ_n) and
a_n E[1{G_{k_n}(šÆ), |šÆ| > M_n} ĪØ_{n-|šÆ|}(0)] = o(Ļ_n) along admissible sizes, then (M)
holds. Small trees are handled by the uniform ratio limit
(eventually_abs_uniformFringeLaw_real_sub_le), large ones by Corollary cor:cyclicshift and
ĪØ_n(-1) ā„ c / a_n.
Corollary cor:SM(i) (source lines 1256ā1311, P05): Assumption (S) implies
Assumption (M) along (k_n) with respect to the same cutoff (M_n).
Corollary cor:SM(ii) (source lines 1305ā1311): under Assumption (S),
E[#{u ā šÆ^n : G_{k_n}(šÆ^n_u) = 1}] ā¼ n Ļ_n along admissible sizes.
Local core estimate (proof of cor:SM(iii), source lines 1330ā1353): for a
decomposition Ļ of P(Ā· | G(šÆ) = 1) and n ā„ 1,
P(|šÆ| = n | G(šÆ) = 1) ⤠P(C > n/2) + K E[L] / (n a_n). On {C ⤠n/2} the forest must have
exactly n - C ā„ n/2 vertices, and P(|š¢_ā| = n - c) ⤠C ā / ((n - c) a_{n-c}); the empty forest
contributes nothing since n - c ā„ 1.
Corollary cor:SM(iii) (source lines 1258ā1260, 1313ā1364): under Assumption (S), if
Ļ_n = O(1/n) along admissible sizes, then the root of šÆ^n is marked with vanishing
probability, P(G_{k_n}(šÆ^n) = 1) ā 0. The proof writes
P(G_{k_n}(šÆ^n) = 1) = Ļ_n P_{k_n}(|šÆ| = n) / P(|šÆ| = n), uses P(|šÆ| = n) ā„ c / (n a_n)
(tree_size_asymp) and the local core estimate cond_vertexCount_eq_le; null marks
(Ļ_n = 0) and empty forests are covered (correction F13).
