On the Asymptotic Behavior of the Harmonic Renewal Measure

Author

  • M. S. Sgibnev

Abstract

We study the tail behavior of the harmonic renewal measure U=Σ n=1 ∞ (1/n)F n* where F is a probability distribution with finite negative mean and F n * is the n-fold convolution of F. As an application of the obtained result on U, we give alternative proofs of some known results concerning the tail behavior of the supremum and the first positive sum of a random walk with negative drift.
