Large deviations for heavy-tailed random sums of independent random variables with dominatedly varying tails

We prove large deviation results on the partial and random sums Sn = ∑i=1n Xi,n≥1; S(t) = ∑i=1N(t) Xi, t≥0, where {N(t);t≥0} are non-negative integer-valued random variables and {Xn;n≥1} are independent non-negative random variables with distribution, Fn, of Xn, independent of {N(t); t≥0}. Special attention is paid to the distribution of dominated variation.     

Precise large deviations for widely orthant dependent random variables with dominatedly varying tails

Large deviations for trajectories of sums of independent random variables

Given a sequence of independent, but not necessarily identically distributed random variables,Y _i , letS _k denote thekth partial sum. Define a function by taking to be the piecewise linear interpolant of the points (k, S _k ), evaluated att, whereS ₀=0, andk=0, 1, 2,... Fort[0, 1], let . The are called trajectories. With regularity and moment conditions on theY _i , a large deviation principle is proved for the .

Asymptotics of random sums of negatively dependent random variables in the presence of dominatedly varying tails

Let X ₁ , X ₂ , . . . be a sequence of negatively dependent and identically distributed random variables, and let N be a counting random variable independent of X _i ’s. In this paper, we study the asymptotics for the tail probability of the random sum S_N = ?_{k = 1}^N X_k {S_N} = \sum\nolimits_{k = 1}^N {{X_k}} in the presence of heavy tails. We consider the following three cases: (i) P(N > x) = o(P(X ₁  > x)), and the distribution function (d.f.) of X ₁ is dominatedly varying; (ii) P(X ₁  > x) = o(P(N > x)), and the d.f. of N is dominatedly varying; (iii) the tails of X ₁ and N are asymptotically comparable and dominatedly varying.

Large deviations for product of sums of random variables

In this paper, we obtain sample path and scalar large deviation principles for the product of sums of positive random variables. We study the case when the positive random variables are independent and identically distributed and bounded away from zero or the left tail decays to zero sufficiently fast. The explicit formula for the rate function of a scalar large deviation principle is given in the case when random variables are exponentially distributed.     

Small deviations of modified sums of independent random variables

Let S_n = X₁ + · · · + X _n , n ≥ 1, and S ₀ = 0, where X ₁, X ₂, . . . are independent, identically distributed random variables such that the distribution of S _n/B _n converges weakly to a nondeoenerate distribution F _α as n → ∞ for some positive B _n . We study asymptotic behavior of sums of the form

Superlarge deviations for sums of random variables with arithmetical super-exponential distributions

Local limit theorems are obtained for superlarge deviations of sums S(n) = ξ(1) + ... + ξ(n) of independent identically distributed random variables having an arithmetical distribution with the right-hand tail decreasing faster that that of a Gaussian law. The distribution of ξ has the form ?(ξ = k) = \(e^{ - k^\beta L(k)} \), where β > 2, k ∈ ? (? is the set of all integers), and L(t) is a slowly varying function as t → ∞ which satisfies some regularity conditions. These theorems describing an asymptotic behavior of the probabilities ?(S(n) = k) as k/n → ∞, complement the results on superlarge deviations in [4, 5].     

On probabilities of moderate deviations of sums for independent random variables

We investigate asymptotics of probabilities of moderate deviations and their logarithms for an array of row-wise independent random variables with finite variations and finite one-sided moments of order p > 2. The range of the zone of normal convergence is calculated in terms of Lyapunov ratios constructed from the positive parts of the random variables. Bounds for probabilities of moderate deviations are also derived in the case where the normal convergence fails.

Precise large deviations for sums of random vectors with dependent components of consistently varying tails

Let {X _i = (X _1,i ,...,X _m,i )^?, i ≥ 1} be a sequence of independent and identically distributed nonnegative m-dimensional random vectors. The univariate marginal distributions of these vectors have consistently varying tails and finite means. Here, the components of X ₁ are allowed to be generally dependent. Moreover, let N(·) be a nonnegative integer-valued process, independent of the sequence {X _i , i ≥ 1}. Under several mild assumptions, precise large deviations for S _n = Σ _i=1 ⁿ X _i and S _N(t) = Σ _i=1 ^N(t) X _i are investigated. Meanwhile, some simulation examples are also given to illustrate the results.
