Asymptotic Independence of random walks from increments?

Suppose we have two random walks $(S_n:n\geq 1)$ and $(T_n:n\geq 1)$ building from independent identically distributed increment vectors $\{(X_k,Y_k):k\geq 1\}$, i.e. $S_n=\sum_{k=1}^n X_k, T_n=\sum_{...

Spitzer's condition, a slowly varying function and its behavior

Let $S$ denote a random walk that satisfies Spitzer's condition $$ \frac{1}{n} \sum _{k=1}^n P (S_k > 0 ) \to \rho$$ for some $\rho \in (0,1)$. From the book Regular Variation (Bingham, Goldie, ...

Minima of a random walk and an equality for a fraction

Let $S_n := X_1 + \dots + X_n$ denote a random walk with zero mean and finite variance and write $L_n := \min \{ 0, S_1, \dots, S_n\}$. The tail distribution of $L_n$ are well-known and in particular, ...
