Asymptotic analysis of random walks Asymptotic analysis of random walks A. A. Borovkov,K. A. Borovkov This monograph is devoted to studying the asymptotic behaviour of the probabilities of large deviations of the trajectories of random walks, with 'heavy-tailed' (in particular, regularly varying, sub… OL17999716W
Intersections of Random Walks Intersections of Random Walks Gregory F. Lawler <p>A central study in Probability Theory is the behavior of fluctuation phenomena of partial sums of different types of random variable. One of the most useful concepts for this purpose is that of th… OL19858742W
