Abstract

Let {ξ1, ξ2. . . .} be a sequence of independent possibly differently distributed random variables defined on a probability space (Ω, F, P) with distribution functions {F_ξ1., F_ξ2 , . . .}. Let η be a counting random variable independent of sequence {ξ1, ξ2. . . .}. In this paper, we find conditions under which distribution function of randomly stopped sum Sη = ξ1 + ξ2 + . . . + ξη belongs to the class of generalized subexponential distributions.
