We study the distribution of the maximum $M$ of a random walk whose increments have a distribution with negative mean and belonging, for some $\gamma>0$, to a subclass of the class $\mathcal{S}_\gamma$--see, for example, Chover, Ney, and…

Let $\{X(t) : t \in [0, \infty) \}$ be a centered stationary Gaussian process. We study the exact asymptotics of $\pr (\sup_{s \in [0,T]} X(t) > u)$, as $u \to \infty$, where $T$ is an independent of \{X(t)\} nonnegative random variable. It…

In this paper we discuss the asymptotic behaviour of random contractions $X=RS$, where $R$, with distribution function $F$, is a positive random variable independent of $S\in (0,1)$. Random contractions appear naturally in insurance and…

Consider a random geometric 2-dimensional simplicial complex $X$ sampled as follows: first, sample $n$ vectors $\boldsymbol{u_1},\ldots,\boldsymbol{u_n}$ uniformly at random on $\mathbb{S}^{d-1}$; then, for each triple $i,j,k \in [n]$, add…
