Asymptotic Tail Probabilities of Sums of Dependent Subexponential Random Variables
In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the tail probabilities of sums of dependent and real-valued random variables whose distributions are assumed to be subexponential and not necessarily of dominated variation. We propose two general dependence assumptions under which the asymptotic behavior of the tail probabilities of the sums is the same as that in the independent case. In parti...
متن کاملStrong Laws for Weighted Sums of Negative Dependent Random Variables
In this paper, we discuss strong laws for weighted sums of pairwise negatively dependent random variables. The results on i.i.d case of Soo Hak Sung [9] are generalized and extended.
متن کاملAsymptotics for Sums of Random Variables with Local Subexponential Behaviour
We study distributions F on [0,.) such that for some T [., Fg (x, x+T] ’ 2F(x, x+T]. The case T=. corresponds to F being subexponential, and our analysis shows that the properties for T <. are, in fact, very similar to this classical case. A parallel theory is developed in the presence of densities. Applications are given to random walks, the key renewal theorem, compound Poisson process and Be...
متن کاملOn the Complete Convergence ofWeighted Sums for Dependent Random Variables
We study the limiting behavior of weighted sums for negatively associated (NA) random variables. We extend results in Wu (1999) and a theorem in Chow and Lai (1973) for NA random variables.
متن کاملWeighted Sums of Subexponential Random Variables and Their Maxima
Let {Xk, k = 1, 2, . . .} be a sequence of independent random variables with common subexponential distribution F , and let {wk, k = 1, 2, . . .} be a sequence of positive numbers. Under some mild summability conditions, we establish simple asymptotic estimates for the extreme tail probabilities of both the weighted sum ∑n k=1 wkXk and the maximum of weighted sums max1≤m≤n ∑m k=1 wkXk , subject...
