Estimating the tail index of Pareto-type distributions from geometric records
MartÃn Alcalde, Raúl Gouet, Miguel Lafuente +2
In this paper, we develop a novel inferential approach based on geometric records for estimating the tail index of heavy-tailed distributions. We construct a maximum likelihood est…

Characterisation of distributions via record-like observations
Raúl Gouet, Miguel Lafuente, F. Javier López +1
We characterise probability distributions via a martingale property associated with a natural generalisation of record values, known as -records. For an independent and identic…

Stochastic ordering, attractiveness and couplings in non-conservative particle systems
Raúl Gouet, F. Javier López, Gerardo Sanz
We analyse the stochastic comparison of interacting particle systems allowing for multiple arrivals, departures and non-conservative jumps of individuals between sites. That is, if…
