Abstract: |
The authors investigate the tail probability of the supremum of a random
walk with independent increments and obtain some equivalent assertions in the case that
the increments are independent and identically distributed random variables with O-
subexponential integrated distributions. A uniform upper bound is derived for the distri-
bution of the supremum of a random walk with independent but non-identically distributed
increments, whose tail distributions are dominated by a common tail distribution with an
O-subexponential integrated distribution. |
