Abstract

We investigate the asymptotic clustering structure of species sampling sequences (ξn)n, for which the base measure has atomic components. We prove a stochastic representation for (ξn)n in terms of a latent exchangeable random partition. Then, we study the asymptotic behaviour of the total number of blocks and of the number of blocks with fixed cardinality in the partition generated by (ξn)n.
