%0 Journal Article %T Changing the branching mechanism of a continuous state branching process using immigration %A Romain Abraham %A Jean-Francois Delmas %J Mathematics %D 2006 %I arXiv %R 10.1214/07-AIHP165 %X We construct a continuous state branching process with immigration (CBI) whose immigration depends on the CBI itself and we recover a continuous state branching process (CB). This provides a dual construction of the pruning at nodes of CB introduced by the authors in a previous paper. This construction is a natural way to model neutral mutation. Using exponential formula, we compute the probability of extinction of the original type population in a critical or sub-critical quadratic branching, conditionally on the non extinction of the total population. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/math/0609518v2
