Controlled Branching Processes provides a comprehensive discussion of the available results for discrete time branching processes with random control functions. The independence of individuals' reproduction is a fundamental assumption in the classical branching processes. Alternatively, the controlled branching processes (CBPs) allow the number of reproductive individuals in one generation to decrease or increase depending on the size of the previous generation. Generating a wide range of behaviors, the CBPs have been successfully used as modeling tools in diverse areas of applications.

Miguel Gonzalez Velasco obtained his Ph.D. in Mathematical Sciences in 1994. He's an associate professor in the department of Mathematics at the University of Extremadura since 1998. His research interests include the modelization through Markov chains, the study of the probabilistic and inferential theory on branching processes and its application on genetics, epidemiology and population dynamics; and the application of statistical methodologies in fields as biology or medicine. Ines Maria Del Puerto Garcia has a PhD in Mathematical Sciences since November, 2002 by University of Extremadura, Spain. She is Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics at University of Extremadura in Spain since 2008. Her research interests include the study of the probabilistic and inferential theory on branching processes. Georges Yanev is an associate professor at Texas Rio Grande Valley University. Since 2012 he's also an associate professor at the University of Texas - Pan American. He obtained he's PhD In mathematics in 2001.
