摘要
Let X 1 , X 2 denote positive heavy-tailed random variables with continuous marginal distribution functions F 1 and F 2, respectively. The asymptotic behavior of the tail of X 1 +X 2 is studied in a general copula framework and some bounds and extremal properties are provided. For more specific assumptions on F 1 , F 2 and the underlying dependence structure of X 1 and X 2, we survey explicit asymptotic results available in the literature and add several new cases. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2006.
