A tree-valued Markov processes associated with an admissible family of   branching mechanisms
  By studying an admissible family of branching mechanisms introduced in Li (2014), we obtain a pruning procedure on L\'evy trees. Then we could construct a decreasing L\'evy-CRT-valued process $\{{\mathcal T}_t\}$ by pruning L\'evy trees and an analogous process $\{{\mathcal T}^*_t\}$ by pruning a critical L\'evy tree conditioned to be infinite. Under a regular condition on the admissible family of branching mechanisms, we show that the law of $\{{\mathcal T}_t\}$ at the ascension time can be represented by $\{{\mathcal T}^*_t\}$. The results generalize those studied in Abraham and Delmas (2012).
