Lower limits and equivalences for convolution tails

Probability 2017-11-29 v2

Abstract

Suppose FF is a distribution on the half-line [0,)[0,\infty). We study the limits of the ratios of tails FFˉ(x)/Fˉ(x)\bar{F*F}(x)/\bar{F}(x) as xx\to\infty. We also discuss the classes of distributions S{\mathcal{S}}, S(γ){\mathcal{S}}(\gamma) and S{\mathcal{S}}^*.
