Abstract
We consider a family of fragmentation processes where the rate at which a particle splits is proportional to a function of its mass. Let F1(m)(t),F2(m)(t),… denote the decreasing rearrangement of the masses present at time t in a such process, starting from an initial mass m. Let then m→∞. Under an assumption of regular variation type on the dynamics of the fragmentation, we prove that the sequence (F2(m),F3(m),…) converges in distribution, with respect to the Skorohod topology, to a fragmentation with immigration process. This holds jointly with the convergence of m−F1(m) to a stable subordinator. A continuum random tree counterpart of this result is also given: the continuum random tree describing the genealogy of a self-similar fragmentation satisfying the required assumption and starting from a mass converging to ∞ will converge to a tree with a spine coding a fragmentation with immigration.
