Finite trees under the Bienaymé–Galton–Watson law #

Through the bridge PlaneTree.toLocallyFinite, the law of a finite tree t is the product, over all vertices of t, of the offspring probability of its outdegree (bienaymeLaw_toLocallyFinite). No criticality or finiteness assumption is made. The finite trees form a measurable set of probability at most one: its mass is the total weight of finite plane trees, which is the probability that the tree is finite. Equality with one is not claimed here.

PlaneTree carries no MeasurableSpace instance. It is countable, so the measurability that the transport needs is that of singletons and of the finite part in Tree, and the law of the finite part is expressed as a sum of weighted Dirac masses at the images of finite trees. With the discrete σ-algebra written explicitly, toLocallyFinite is a measurable embedding (measurableEmbedding_toLocallyFinite).

The atom of a finite tree: the product of the offspring masses of all its outdegrees.

With the discrete σ-algebra on the countable type PlaneTree (not installed as an instance), the bridge is a measurable embedding into Tree.

The probability that the tree is finite is the total weight of finite plane trees.

The total weight of finite plane trees is at most one, for every offspring law.
