Abstract
The Beta(2−α,α) n-coalescent with 1<α<2 is a Markov process taking values in the set of partitions of {1,…,n}. It evolves from the initial value {1},…,{n} by merging (coalescing) blocks together into one and finally reaching the absorbing state {1,…,n}. This article aims to give the asymptotic distribution of the size of the minimal clade of 1, which is the block containing 1 at the time of coalescence of the singleton {1}. To this, we express it as a function of the coalescence time of {1}, the number of blocks involved and their sizes. The asymptotic behaviours of those related functionals are therefore also studied.
