A measure-valued process describes the evolution of a population that evolves according to the law of chance. In this chapter we provide some basic characterizations and constructions for measure-valued branching processes. In particular, we establish a one-to-one correspondence between those processes and cumulant semigroups. Some results for nonlinear integral evolution equations are proved, which lead to an analytic construction of a class of measure-valued branching processes, the so-called Dawson–Watanabe superprocesses. We shall construct the superprocesses for admissible killing densities and general branching mechanisms that are not necessarily decomposable into local and non-local parts. A number of moment formulas for the superprocesses are also given.
