Abstract:We study the scaling limit for a catalytic branching particle system whose particles perform random walks on ℤ and can branch at 0 only. Varying the initial (finite) number of particles, we get for this system different limiting distributions. To be more specific, suppose that initially there are n β particles and consider the scaled process $$
Z^{n}_{t} {left(  bullet  right)} = Z_{{nt}} {left( {{sqrt {n bullet } }} right)}
$$ , where Z t is the measure–valued process representing the original particle system. We prove that $$
Z^{n}_{t} 
$$ converges to 0 when $$
beta  < frac{1}
{4}
$$ and to a nondegenerate discrete distribution when $$
beta  = frac{1}
{4}
$$ . In addition, if $$
frac{1}
{4} < beta  < frac{1}
{2}
$$ then $$
n^{{ - {left( {2beta  - frac{1}
{2}} right)}}} Z^{n}_{t} 
$$ converges to a random limit, while if $$
beta  > frac{1}
{2}
$$ then $$
n^{{ - beta }} Z^{n}_{t} 
$$ converges to a deterministic limit. * Research supported partially by DFG and grants RFBR 02–01–00266 and Russian Scientific School 1758.2003.1 ** Research supported partially by NSA and by Alexander von Humboldt Foundation
