Convolution and convolution-root properties of long-tailed distributions
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: We obtain a number of new general properties, related to the closedness of the class of long-tailed distributions under convolutions, that are of interest themselves and may be applied in many models that deal with "plus" and/or "max" operations on heavy-tailed random variables. We analyse the closedness property under convolution roots for these distributions. Namely, we introduce two classes of heavy-tailed distributions that are not long-tailed and study their properties. These examples help to provide further insights and, in particular, to show that the properties to be both long-tailed and so-called "generalised subexponential" are not preserved under the convolution roots. This leads to a negative answer to a conjecture of Embrechts and Goldie [10, 12] for the class of long-tailed and generalised subexponential distributions. In particular, our examples show that the following is possible: an infinitely divisible distribution belongs to both classes, while its Levy measure is neither long-tailed nor generalised subexponential.
