✦ Synopsis

A joint estimator for the eigenvalues of the reproduction mean matrix of a nonsingular, positively regular, supercritical, multitype Galton-Watson process is proposed. The estimator is based exclusively upon the vectors of the numbers of elements of each type in the successive generations. Conditions for the almost sure convergence are studied.
