On Sums of Conditionally Independent Subexponential Random Variables
The asymptotic tail-behaviour of sums of independent subexponential random variables is well understood, one of the main characteristics being the principle of the single big jump. We study the case of dependent subexponential random variables, for both deterministic and random sums, using a fresh approach, by considering conditional independence structures on the random variables. We seek suff...
متن کاملConditionally independent random variables
In this paper we investigate the notion of conditional independence and prove several information inequalities for conditionally independent random variables. Keywords— Conditionally independent random variables, common information, rate region.
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...
متن کاملAsymptotic 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 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...
