Cram\'er's estimate for stable processes with power drift

Probability 2018-06-05 v1

Abstract

We investigate the upper tail probabilities of the all-time maximum of a stable L\'evy process with a power negative drift. The asymptotic behaviour is shown to be exponential in the spectrally negative case and polynomial otherwise, with explicit exponents and constants. Analogous results are obtained, at a less precise level, for the fractionally integrated stable L\'evy process. We also study the lower tail probabilities of the integrated stable L\'evy process in the presence of a power positive drift.
