The site frequency spectrum for coalescing Brownian motion

Abstract

We consider an expanding population on the plane. The genealogy of a sample from the population is modelled by coalescing Brownian motion on the circle. We establish a weak law of large numbers for the site frequency spectrum in this model. A parallel result holds for a localized version where the genealogy is modelled by coalescing Brownian motion on the line.
