Abstract

In this paper, we establish limit theorems for the supremum of the support, denoted by Mt, of a supercritical super-Brownian motion {Xt,t≥0} on R. We prove that there exists an m(t) such that (Xt−m(t),Mt−m(t)) converges in law, and give some large deviation results for Mt as t→∞. We also prove that the limit of the extremal process Et≔Xt−m(t) is a Poisson random measure with exponential intensity in which each atom is decorated by an independent copy of an auxiliary measure. These results are analogues of the results for branching Brownian motions obtained in Arguin et al. (2013), Aïdékon et al. (2013) and Roberts (2013).
