Large Deviations Of Sums Mainly Due To Just One Summand
Abstract
We present a formalization of the well-known thesis that, in the case of independent identically distributed random variables X1,…,Xn with power-like tails of index α∈(0,2), large deviations of the sum X1+…+Xn are primarily due to just one of the summands.
