Small-time behavior of beta coalescents

For a finite measure Λ on [0, 1], the Λ-coalescent is a coalescent process such that, whenever there are b clusters, each k-tuple of clusters merges into one at rate ∫and01 x k-2(1-x) b-kΛ (dx) . It has recently been shown that if 1< α < 2, the λ-coalescent in which Λ is the Beta(2-α,α...
