Harmonic Analysis of Branching Random Walks with Heavy Tails
We consider a continuous-time symmetric, spatially homogeneous branching random walk on a multidimensional lattice with a single branching source....

Joint Sum-and-Max Limit for a Class of Long-Range Dependent Processes with Heavy Tails
We consider a class of stationary processes exhibiting both long-range dependence and heavy tails. Separate limit theorems for sums and for extremes...

Fitting Time Series with Heavy Tails and Strong Time Dependence
Earlier, a model of a time series with heavy tails constructed from a Gaussian time series was developed. In the present paper, the reverse problem...

On Estimation of the Scale and Location Parameters of Distribution Tails
Estimators of the location and scale parameters are proposed for tails of distributions belonging to the Gumbel or Fréchet maximum domain of...

Product-Convolution of Heavy-Tailed and Related Distributions
Products of random variables and related distribution problems appear in physics, engineering, number theory, and many probability and statistical... -
On Tests to Distinguish Distribution Tails Invariant with Respect to the Scale Parameter
AbstractWe propose two tests to distinguish between separable classes of distribution tails, the first of which is invariant with respect to the...

Sample average approximation with heavier tails II: localization in stochastic convex optimization and persistence results for the Lasso
“Localization” has proven to be a valuable tool in the Statistical Learning literature as it allows sharp risk bounds in terms of the problem...

The Random Conductance Model with Heavy Tails on Nested Fractal Graphs
Recently, Kigami’s resistance form framework has been applied to provide a general approach for deriving the scaling limits of random walks on graphs... -
Algorithms with Gradient Clip** for Stochastic Optimization with Heavy-Tailed Noise
AbstractThis article provides a survey of the results of several research studies [12–14, 26], in which open questions related to the...

Heavy-Tailed and Related Classes of Distributions
In this chapter, we define the distribution classes whose closure properties will be considered in the subsequent chapters: heavy-tailed... -
Drift estimation for a Lévy-driven Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process with heavy tails
We consider the problem of estimation of the drift parameter of an ergodic Ornstein–Uhlenbeck type process driven by a Lévy process with heavy tails....

Sample average approximation with heavier tails I: non-asymptotic bounds with weak assumptions and stochastic constraints
We derive new and improved non-asymptotic deviation inequalities for the sample average approximation (SAA) of an optimization problem. Our results...

On the number of terms in the COS method for European option pricing
The Fourier-cosine expansion (COS) method is used to price European options numerically in a very efficient way. To apply the COS method, one has to...
