Abstract
In this article, a modification of the branching stochastic process with immigration and with continuous states, introduced by Adke and Gadag [1] will be considered. Theorems establishing a relationship of this process with Bienaymé-Galton-Watson processes will be proved. It will be demonstrated that limit theorems for the new process can be deduced from those for simple processes with time-dependent immigration, assuming that process is critical and offspring variance is finite.
