AbstractWe consider a space-time random field on ${{\mathbb{R}^d} \times {\mathbb{R}}}$ given as an integral of a kernel function with respect to a Lévy basis with a convolution equivalent Lévy measure. The field obeys causality in time and is thereby not continuous along the time axis. For a large class of such random fields we study the tail behaviour of certain functionals of the field. It turns out that the tail is asymptotically equivalent to the right tail of the underlying Lévy measure. Particular examples are the asymptotic probability that there is a time point and a rotation of a spatial object with fixed radius, in which the field exceeds the level x, and that there is a time interval and a rotation of a spatial object with fixed radius, in which the average of the field exceeds the level x.

The upper tail behaviour is explored for a stopped random product ∏j=1NXj, where the factors are positive and independent and identically distributed, andNis the first time one of the factors occupies a subset of the positive reals. This structure is motivated by a heavy-tailed analogue of the factorialn!, called the factoid ofn. Properties of the factoid suggested by computer explorations are shown to be valid. Two topics about the determination of the Zipf exponent in the rank-size law for city sizes are discussed.

The tail behaviour of the limit of the normalized population size in the simple supercritical branching process, W, is studied. Most of the results concern those cases when a tail of the distribution function of W decays exponentially quickly. In essence, knowledge of the behaviour of transforms can be combined with some ‘large-deviation' theory to get detailed information on the oscillation of the distribution function of W near zero or at infinity. In particular we show how an old result of Harris (1948) on the asymptotics of the moment-generating function of W translates to tail behaviour.

Abstract We demonstrate that analysis of long series of daily returns should take into account potential long-term variation not only in volatility, but also in parameters that describe asymmetry or tail behaviour. However, it is necessary to use a conditional distribution that is flexible enough, allowing for separate modelling of tail asymmetry and skewness, which requires going beyond the skew-t form. Empirical analysis of 60 years of S&P500 daily returns suggests evidence for tail asymmetry (but not for skewness). Moreover, tail thickness and tail asymmetry is not time-invariant. Tail asymmetry became much stronger at the beginning of the Great Moderation period and weakened after 2005, indicating important differences between the 1987 and the 2008 crashes. This is confirmed by our analysis of out-of-sample density forecasting performance (using LPS and CRPS measures) within two recursive expanding-window experiments covering the events. We also demonstrate consequences of accounting for long-term changes in shape features for risk assessment.

Consider the region L = {(x, y): 0 ≤ y ≤ Clog(1 + x), x > 0} for a constant C > 0. We study the percolation and coverage properties of this region. For the coverage properties, we place a Poisson point process of intensity λ on the entire half space R + x R and associated with each Poisson point we place a box of a random side length ρ. Depending on the tail behaviour of the random variable ρ we exhibit a phase transition in the intensity for the eventual coverage of the region L. For the percolation properties, we place a Poisson point process of intensity λ on the region R 2. At each point of the process we centre a box of a random side length ρ. In the case ρ ≤ R for some fixed R > 0 we study the critical intensity λc of the percolation on L.
