摘要
There are several constructions connecting random walks to branching trees. Here we discuss an approach linking Galton-Watson trees with arbitrary offspring distribution to random walk excursions resp. bridges. In special situations this leads to a connection to three basic statistics from statistical mechanics. Other applications include the description of random subtrees and the contour process of a Galton-Watson tree.
