Closure property and tail probability asymptotics for randomly weighted sums of dependent random variables with heavy tails. (English) Zbl 1401.60028

Summary: In this paper we study the closure property and probability tail asymptotics for randomly weighted sums \(S_n^\Theta=\Theta_1 X_1 + \cdots+\Theta_n X_n\) for long-tailed random variables \(X_1,\dots,X_n\) and positive bounded random weights \(\Theta_1,\dots,\Theta_n\) under similar dependence structure as in [Y. Yang et al., Stat. Probab. Lett. 91, 162–170 (2014; Zbl 1288.62078)]. In particular, we study the case where the distribution of random vector \((X_1,\dots,X_n)\) is generated by an absolutely continuous copula.
