Renewal theorems for random walks in multidimensional time (Q2702804)

There is investigated an asymptotic behavior of the renewal function of the random walk \(\{ S_n=\sum_{j\leq n}X_j: n=(n_1,\dots ,n_r)\in K_r\), \(r \geq 1 \}\) in \(r\)-dimensional time (\(\{X,X_n: n \in K_r\), \(r \geq 1 \}\) is a family of nonnegative i.i.d. random variables, \(n_1,\dots ,n_r\) are positive integers). The main results are three theorems dealing with the asymptotic properties of the above mentioned renewal function when either the mean of \(X\) is finite or when the distribution function \(F\) of \(X\) satisfies \(1-F(x)=x^{-\alpha }L(x)\), where \(L\) is a slowly varying function and \(0\leq \alpha \leq 1\).
