We calculate, for a branching random walk $$X_n(l)$$ X n ( l ) to a leaf l at depth n on a binary tree, the positive integer moments of the random variable $$\frac{1}{2^{n}}\sum _{l=1}^{2^n}e^{2\beta X_n(l)}$$ 1 2 n ∑ l = 1 2 n e 2 β X n ( l ) , for $$\beta \in {\mathbb {R}}$$ β ∈ R . We obtain explicit formulae for the first few moments for finite n . In the limit $$n\rightarrow \infty$$ n → ∞ , our expression coincides with recent conjectures and results concerning the moments of moments of…
