Nous introduisons un système de marches aléatoires coalescentes unidimensionnelles, avec des sauts à longue portée. Ce système autorise des chemins qui se croisent, et qui sont dépendants, même avant leur coalescence. Après une renormalisation diffusive, nous montrons que ce système converge en loi vers le réseau brownien.

We introduce a system of one-dimensional coalescing nonsimple random walks with long range jumps allowing paths that can cross each other and are dependent even before coalescence. We show that under diffusive scaling this system converges in distribution to the Brownian Web.
