Randomly Stopped Sums with Generalized Subexponential Distribution

open access: yesAxioms, 2023
Let {ξ1,ξ2,…} be a sequence of independent possibly differently distributed random variables, defined on a probability space (Ω,F,P) with distribution functions {Fξ1,Fξ2,…}. Let η be a counting random variable independent of sequence {ξ1,ξ2,…}.

Renewal theory for random variables with a heavy tailed distribution and finite variance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Let X-1, X-2,... X-n be independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) non-negative random variables with a common distribution function (d.f.) F with unbounded support and EX12 < infinity.

A Renewal Shot Noise Process with Subexponential Shot Marks

open access: yesRisks, 2019
We investigate a shot noise process with subexponential shot marks occurring at renewal epochs. Our main result is a precise asymptotic formula for its tail probability.

Asymptotic tail behavior of phase-type scale mixture distributions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We consider phase-type scale mixture distributions which correspond to distributions of a product of two independent random variables: a phase-type random variable $Y$ and a nonnegative but otherwise arbitrary random variable $S$ called the scaling ...

Second order corrections for the limits of normalized ruin times in the presence of heavy tails

open access: yesStochastic Systems, 2014
In this paper we consider a compound Poisson risk model with regularly varying claim sizes. For this model in [4] an asymptotic formula for the finite time ruin probability is provided when the time is scaled by the mean excess function. In this paper

Convolution and convolution-root properties of long-tailed distributions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We obtain a number of new general properties, related to the closedness of the class of long-tailed distributions under convolutions, that are of interest themselves and may be applied in many models that deal with "plus" and/or "max" operations on heavy-

Asymptotics in the symmetrization inequality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We give a sufficient condition for i.i.d. random variables X1,X2 in order to have P{X1-X2>x} ~ P{|X1|>x} as x tends to infinity. A factorization property for subexponential distributions is used in the proof.

General inverse problems for regular variation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Regular variation of distributional tails is known to be preserved by various linear transformations of some random structures. An inverse problem for regular variation aims at understanding whether the regular variation of a transformed random object is

Martingale approach to subexponential asymptotics for random walks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Consider the random walk $S_n=\xi_1+...+\xi_n$ with independent and identically distributed increments and negative mean $\mathbf E\xi=-mx), x\to\infty$ for long-tailed distributions.
