Stochastic Volatility Models: Conditional Normality Versus Heavy-Tailed Distributions [PDF]
Most of the empirical applications of the stochastic volatility (SV) model are based on the assumption that the conditional distribution of returns, given the latent volatility process, is normal. In this paper, the SV model based on a conditional normal distribution is compared with SV specifications using conditional heavy-tailed distributions ...

Statistical analysis of storm-time near-Earth current systems [PDF]
Currents from the Hot Electron and Ion Drift Integrator (HEIDI) inner magnetospheric model results for all of the 90 intense storms (disturbance storm-time (Dst) minimum < −100 nT) from solar cycle 23 (1996–2005) are calculated, presented, and ...

Evaluating CMIP6 model fidelity at simulating non-Gaussian temperature distribution tails
Under global warming, changes in extreme temperatures will manifest in more complex ways in locations where temperature distribution tails deviate from Gaussian.

An asymptotically Gaussian bound on the Rademacher tails [PDF]
An explicit upper bound on the tail probabilities for the normalized Rademacher sums is given. This bound, which is best possible in a certain sense, is asymptotically equivalent to the corresponding tail probability of the standard normal distribution ...

On Single Server Queues with Batch Arrivals
We consider a queuing system GIν|M|1|∞ with arrival of customers in batches, general renewal arrivals, exponential service times, single service channels and an infinite number of waiting positions, where customers are serviced in the order of their ...
