✦ Synopsis


We study Galton᎐Watson branching processes conditioned on the total ' Ž . progeny to be n which are scaled by a sequence c tending to infinity as o n . It is shown n that this process weakly converges to the total local time of a two-sided three-dimensional Bessel process. This is done by means of characteristic functions and a generating function approach.

For a diffusion type process dX, = d w + a(t, X) dt and a sequence (f,) of nonnegative functions necessary and sufficient conditions to the f, are established which guarantee the as. convergence of fn(X,) dt to zero. This result is applied to derive simple necessary and sufficient conditions for the
