Deformation of power law in the double Pareto distribution using uniformly distributed observation time
Published 14 Mar 2024 in cond-mat.stat-mech and math.PR | (2403.12091v2)
Abstract: The double Pareto distribution is a heavy-tailed distribution with a power-law tail, that is generated via geometric Brownian motion with an exponentially distributed observation time. In this study, we examine a modified model wherein the exponential distribution of the observation time is replaced with a continuous uniform distribution. The probability density, complementary cumulative distribution, and moments of this model are exactly calculated. Furthermore, the validity of the analytical calculations is discussed in comparison with numerical simulations of stochastic processes.
