Fractional Edgeworth expansions for one-dimensional heavy-tailed random variables and applications

Probability 2023-06-30 v2

Abstract

In this article, we study a class of lattice random variables in the domain of attraction of an α\alpha-stable random variable with index α(0,2)\alpha \in (0,2) which satisfy a truncated fractional Edgeworth expansion. Our results include studying the class of such fractional Edgeworth expansions under simple operations, providing concrete examples; sharp rates of convergence to an α\alpha-stable distribution in a local central limit theorem; Green's function expansions; and finally fluctuations of a class of discrete stochastic PDE's driven by the heavy-tailed random walks belonging to the class of fractional Edgeworth expansions.
