Description
Quantile regression models which can track the relationship of predictive variables and the response variable in specific quantiles are especially useful in applications when extreme quantiles instead of the center of the distribution are interest...

Description
The main result of this dissertation concerns the asymptotics, uniform in t and x, of the probability distribution of a random walk with heavy tails. The random walk is a Markov process and thus can be characterized in terms of their generators. W...
