A Tandem Fluid Network with L\'evy Input in Heavy Traffic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper we study the stationary workload distribution of a fluid tandem queue in heavy traffic. We consider different types of L\'evy input, covering compound Poisson, $\alpha$-stable L\'evy motion (with ...

The Stability of the Aggregate Loss Distribution

open access: yesRisks, 2018
In this article we introduce the stability analysis of a compound sum: it consists of computing the standardized variation of the survival function of the sum resulting from an infinitesimal perturbation of the common distribution of the summands ...

Statistics of weighted Poisson events and its applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The statistics of the sum of random weights where the number of weights is Poisson distributed has important applications in nuclear physics, particle physics and astrophysics.

A Compound Poisson Approximation Inequality [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Probability, 2006
We give conditions under which the number of events which occur in a sequence ofm-dependent events is stochastically smaller than a suitably defined compound Poisson random variable. The results are applied to counts of sequence pattern appearances and to system reliability. We also provide a numerical example.

Conditional value-at-risk bounds for compound Poisson risks and a normal approximation

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2003
A considerable number of equivalent formulas defining conditional value-at-risk and expected shortfall are gathered together. Then we present a simple method to bound the conditional value-at-risk of compound Poisson loss distributions under incomplete ...

Compound Poisson Approximation via Information Functionals

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Probability, 2010
An information-theoretic development is given for the problem of compound Poisson approximation, which parallels earlier treatments for Gaussian and Poisson approximation. Let $P_{S_n}$ be the distribution of a sum $S_n=\Sumn Y_i$ of independent integer-valued random variables $Y_i$.

Ruin probabilities for a perturbed risk model with stochastic premiums and constant interest force

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2016
In this paper, we consider a perturbed compound Poisson risk model with stochastic premiums and constant interest force. We obtain the upper bound and Lundberg-Cramér approximation for the infinite-time ruin probability, and consider the asymptotic ...

Estimating Stein's Constants for Compound Poisson Approximation [PDF]

open access: yesBernoulli, 2000
Stein's method for compound Poisson approximation was introduced by \textit{A.D. Barbour}, \textit{L.H.Y. Chen} and \textit{W.-L. Loh} [Ann. Probab. 20, No. 4, 1843-1866 (1992; Zbl 0765.60015)]. One difficulty in applying the method is that the bounds on the solutions of the Stein equation are by no means as good as for the Poisson approximation. Here,

On Stein's method and perturbations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Stein’s (1972) method is a very general tool for assessing the quality of approximation of the distribution of a random element by another, often simpler, distribution.
