A note on the abundance of primordial black holes: Use and misuse of the metric curvature perturbation

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2022
The formation of Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) through the collapse of large fluctuations in the early universe is a rare event. This manifests itself, for instance, through the non-Gaussian tail of the formation probability.

Approximation of high quantiles from intermediate quantiles

open access: yes, 2016
Motivated by applications requiring quantile estimates for very small probabilities of exceedance, this article addresses estimation of high quantiles for probabilities bounded by powers of sample size with exponents below -1.

Methods of Tail Dependence Estimation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Characterization and quantification of climate extremes and their dependencies are fundamental to the studying of natural hazards. This chapter reviews various parametric and nonparametric tail dependence coefficient estimators.

Local asymptotics for the area under the random walk excursion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We study tail behaviour of the distribution of the area under the positive excursion of a random walk which has negative drift and light-tailed increments.

Assessing Market Risk in BRICS and Oil Markets: An Application of Markov Switching and Vine Copula

open access: yesInternational Journal of Financial Studies, 2021
This paper investigates the dynamic tail dependence risk between BRICS economies and the world energy market, in the context of the COVID-19 financial crisis of 2020, in order to determine optimal investment decisions based on risk metrics.

Approximating Tail Areas of Probability Distributions

open access: yesThe Annals of Statistics, 1978
A general method for approximating tail areas is developed through an extension of the methodology of Andrews. This extension is applied to both continuous and discrete distributions. Examples of the approximations are given for the standard normal, $t$, and chi-square distributions in the continuous case and for the Poisson and binomial distributions ...

Critical Branching Brownian Motion with Killing

open access: yes, 2015
We obtain sharp asymptotic estimates for hitting probabilities of a critical branching Brownian motion in one dimension with killing at 0 We also obtain sharp asymptotic formulas for the tail probabilities of the number of particles killed at 0.

Automatic monitoring and detection of tail-biting behavior in groups of pigs using video-based deep learning methods

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
Automated monitoring of pigs for timely detection of changes in behavior and the onset of tail biting might enable farmers to take immediate management actions, and thus decrease health and welfare issues on-farm.

AAA+ protein unfoldases—the Moirai of the proteome

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
AAA+ unfoldases are essential molecular motors that power protein degradation and disaggregation. This review integrates recent cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) structures and single‐molecule biophysical data to reconcile competing models of substrate translocation.
