DESCRIPTION:We consider the long-time behaviour of a “heterogeneous” bi
 nary branching Brownian motion (BBM)\, in which the branching rate depends
  on the location of the diffusing particle. More precisely\, for a nonnega
 tive function g\, the instantaneous branching rate of a particle at locati
 on x is characterized by g(x) (we refer to this as g-BBM). When g is perio
 dic\, we expect that the microscopic effects of g average out on large sca
 les\, and the process should exhibit asymptotically homogeneous behaviour.
  Nevertheless\, the heterogeneity of the branching rate introduces new tec
 hnical challenges.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present a shape theorem for th
 e convex hull of a periodic g-BBM in all dimensions. This talk is based  o
 n joint work with Louigi Addario-Berry (McGill) and Arturo Arellano Arias 
 (McGill).\n\nSpeaker: Jessica Lin\, McGill
