Equivalent conditions of local asymptotics for the overshoot of a random walk with heavy-tailed increments

Abstract

This article gives the equivalent conditions of the local asymptotics for the overshoot of a random walk with heavy-tailed increments, from which we find that the above asymptotics are different from the local asymptotics for the supremum of the random walk. To do this, the article first extends and improves some existing results about the solutions of renewal equations.
