Resumo

Consider a critical branching random walk on the real line. In a recent paper, Aïdékon (2011) developed a powerful method to obtain the convergence in law of its minimum after a log-factor translation. By an adaptation of this method, we show that the point process formed by the branching random walk seen from the minimum converges in law to a decorated Poisson point process. This result, confirming a conjecture of Brunet and Derrida (J Stat Phys 143:420–446, 2011), can be viewed as a discrete analog of the corresponding results for the branching Brownian motion, previously established by Arguin et al. (2010, 2011) and Aïdékon et al. (2011).
