The geometry of random minimal factorizations of a long cycle

We will be interested in the structure of random typical minimal factorizations of the n-cycle into transpositions, which are factorizations of $(1,\ldots,n)$ as a product of $n-1$ transpositions. We shall establish a phase transition when a certain amount of transpositions have been read one after the other. One of the main tools is a limit theorem for two-type Bienaymé-Galton-Watson trees conditioned on having given numbers of vertices of both types, which is of independent interest. This is joint work with Valentin Féray.
