Tail Behavior, Modes and Other Characteristics of Stable Distributions
نویسنده
چکیده
Stable distributions have heavy tails that are asymptotically Paretian. Accurate computations of stable densities and distribution functions are used to analyze when the Paretian tail actually appears. Implications for estimation procedures are discussed. In addition to numerically locating the mode of a general stable distribution, analytic and numeric results are given for the mode. Extensive tables of stable percentiles have been computed; aspects of these tables and the appropriateness of innnite variance stable models are discussed.

The Tail Mean-Variance Model and Extended Efficient Frontier
In portfolio theory, it is well-known that the distributions of stock returns often have non-Gaussian characteristics. Therefore, we need non-symmetric distributions for modeling and accurate analysis of actuarial data. For this purpose and optimal portfolio selection, we use the Tail Mean-Variance (TMV) model, which focuses on the rare risks but high losses and usually happens in the tail of r...

In the present paper, resonant frequencies and modes of a three-atom photonic molecule and a photonic crystal placed within a cavity are numerically calculated. First, governing formulation in transverse electric field mode (TE) is obtained using Maxwell equations. Then, an algorithm based on a finite difference scheme and matrix algebra is presented. The algorithm is then implemented in a comp...
متن کاملCharacteristics of the Temporal Behavior of Entanglement between Photonic Binomial Distributions and a Two-Level Atom in a Damping Cavity
In the present study, temporal behavior of entanglement between photonic binomial distributions and a two-level atom in a leaky cavity, in equilibrium with the environment at a temperature T, is studied. In this regard, the master equation is solved in the secular approximation for the density matrix, when the initial photonic distribution is binomial, while the atomic states obey the Boltzmann...
متن کاملNon -propagating Waves and Behavior of Curtainwall-pile Breakwaters
Abstract Usually, evanescent modes or non-propagating waves are produced when a propagating incident wave impinges on an interface between two media or materials such as curtainwall-pile breakwater (CPB) at a subcritical angle and decay with distance from interface. To achieve an effective prediction of hydrodynamic performance of CPB and overcome the problem of underestimation of energy loss, ...
