Abstract

In this paper, we establish a central limit theorem for a large class of general supercritical superprocesses with immigration with spatially dependent branching mechanisms satisfying a second moment condition. This central limit theorem extends and generalizes the results obtained by Ren et al. (Stoch Process Appl 125:428–457, 2015). We first give laws of large numbers for supercritical superprocesses with immigration since there are few convergence results on immigration superprocesses, then based on these results, we establish the central limit theorem.
