Abstract

For a multitype branching process in varying environment convergent in probability, a certain sequence of linear combinations of the type sizes is shown to possess some convergence properties. This sequence turns out to be instrumental in deriving a condition for continuity of the limiting distribution function. An application to an L1 convergent process whose offspring mean matrices are weakly ergodic is also given.
