Heavy operators and hydrodynamic tails [PDF]
The late time physics of interacting QFTs at finite temperature is controlled by hydrodynamics. For CFTs this implies that heavy operators -- which are generically expected to create thermal states -- can be studied semiclassically.

Understanding Heavy Tails in a Bounded World or, is a Truncated Heavy Tail Heavy or Not? [PDF]
We address the important question of the extent to which random variables and vectors with truncated power tails retain the characteristic features of random variables and vectors with power tails. We define two truncation regimes, soft truncation regime and hard truncation regime, and show that, in the soft truncation regime, truncated power tails ...

Linear Regression for Heavy Tails [PDF]
There exist several estimators of the regression line in the simple linear regression: Least Squares, Least Absolute Deviation, Right Median, Theil–Sen, Weighted Balance, and Least Trimmed Squares.

Heavy tails and pruning in programmable photonic circuits for universal unitaries [PDF]
Authors model programmable photonic circuits targeting universal unitaries and verify that a type of unit rotation operator has a heavy-tailed distribution.

Distinguishing Log-Concavity from Heavy Tails [PDF]
Well-behaved densities are typically log-convex with heavy tails and log-concave with light ones. We discuss a benchmark for distinguishing between the two cases, based on the observation that large values of a sum X 1 + X 2 occur as result ...

Top Incomes, Heavy Tails, and Rank-Size Regressions
In economics, rank-size regressions provide popular estimators of tail exponents of heavy-tailed distributions. We discuss the properties of this approach when the tail of the distribution is regularly varying rather than strictly Pareto.

The fundamentals of heavy-tails [PDF]
Heavy-tails are a continual source of excitement and confusion across disciplines as they are repeatedly "discovered" in new contexts. This is especially true within computer systems, where heavy-tails seemingly pop up everywhere -- from degree distributions in the internet and social networks to file sizes and interarrival times of workloads. However,

Understanding Heavy Tails of Flood Peak Distributions [PDF]
Statistical distributions of flood peak discharge often show heavy tail behavior, that is, extreme floods are more likely to occur than would be predicted by commonly used distributions that have exponential asymptotic behavior.

The Asymptotics of Moments for the Remaining Time of Heavy-Tail Distributions
Recent mathematical models of reliability computer systems and telecommunication networks are based on distributions with heavy tails. This paper falls into the category of exploring the classical models with heavy tails: Gnedenko–Weibull, Burr ...
