Insensitivity to Negative Dependence of the Asymptotic Behavior of Precise Large Deviations
نویسنده
چکیده
Since the pioneering works of C.C. Heyde, A.V. Nagaev, and S.V. Nagaev in 1960’s and 1970’s, the precise asymptotic behavior of large-deviation probabilities of sums of heavy-tailed random variables has been extensively investigated by many people, but mostly it is assumed that the random variables under discussion are independent. In this paper, we extend the study to the case of negatively dependent random variables and we find out that the asymptotic behavior of precise large deviations is insensitive to the negative dependence.

Asymptotic Behavior of Weighted Sums of Weakly Negative Dependent Random Variables
Let be a sequence of weakly negative dependent (denoted by, WND) random variables with common distribution function F and let be other sequence of positive random variables independent of and for some and for all . In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the tail probabilities of the maximum, weighted sums, randomly weighted sums and randomly indexed weighted sums of heavy...
متن کاملPrecise Large Deviations of Random Sums in Presence of Negative Dependence and Consistent Variation
The study of precise large deviations for random sums is an important topic in insurance and finance. In this paper, we extend recent results of Tang (2006) and Liu (2009) to random sums in various situations. In particular, we establish a precise large deviation result for a nonstandard renewal risk model in which innovations, modelled as real-valued random variables, are negatively dependent ...
متن کاملExperimental and Mathematical Investigation of Time-Dependence of Contaminant Dispersivity in Soil
Laboratory and field experiments have shown that dispersivity is one of the key parameters in contaminant transport in porous media and varies with elapsed time. This time-dependence can be shown using a time-variable dispersivity function. The advantage of this function as opposed to constant dispersivity is that it has at least two coefficients that increase the accuracy of the dispersivity p...
متن کاملWiener Way to Dimensionality
This note introduces a new general conjecture correlating the dimensionality dT of an infinite lattice with N nodes to the asymptotic value of its Wiener Index W(N). In the limit of large N the general asymptotic behavior W(N)≈Ns is proposed, where the exponent s and dT are related by the conjectured formula s=2+1/dT allowing a new definition of dimensionality dW=(s-2)-1. Being related to the t...
متن کاملMeasuring the temperature dependence of refractive index in water phantom for precise monitoring of the absorbed dose by radiation therapy techniques
In this paper, an experimental setup is used to measure the temperature dependence of the refractive index of a water phantom. In radiation calorimetry by laser beams and interferometric systems, the amount of change induced by radiation within the phantom can be accurately measured. Absorption of dose and the resulted change in temperature changes the refractive index within the material. In o...
