An Abelian theorem with application to the conditional Gibbs principle

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

Let X1,...,XnX_1,...,X_n be nn independent unbounded real random variables which have common, roughly speaking, light-tailed type distribution. Denote by S1nS_1^n their sum and by πanπ^{a_n} the tilted density of X1X_1, where an→∞a_n \rightarrow\infty as n→∞n\rightarrow \infty. An Abelian type theorem is given, which is used to approximate the first three centered moments of the distribution πanπ^{a_n}. Further, we provide the Edgeworth expansion of nn-convolution of the normalized tilted density under the setting of a triangular array of row-wise independent summands, which is then applied to obtain one local limit theorem conditioned on extreme deviation event (S1n/n=an)(S_1^n/n=a_n) with an→∞a_n\rightarrow \infty.
