We study several fractal properties of the Weierstrass-type function \[ W(x)=\sum_{n=0} ^\infty \lambda (x) \lambda(\tau x) \cdots \lambda (\tau ^{n-1}x)\, g(\tau ^n x), \] where $\tau :[0,1)\to[0,1)$ is a cookie cutter map with possibly…
I present a parametric, bijective transformation to generate heavy tail versions Y of arbitrary RVs X ~ F. The tail behavior of the so-called 'heavy tail Lambert W x F' RV Y depends on a tail parameter delta >= 0: for delta = 0, Y = X, for…
