The paper provides a complete description of the Martin entrance bound-
ary and its minimal elements for a Galton-Watson process (Zn)n0.
Since this is easily done and known for critical processes, we deal with
the noncritical case which in turn can be reduced to the subcritical one.
The Martin entrance boundary consists of all quasi-invariant Radon
measures. The minimal Martin entrance boundary is isomorphic to
