Affine Point Processes: Approximation and Efficient Simulation

We establish a central limit theorem and a large deviations principle for affine point processes, which are stochastic models of correlated event timing widely used in finance and …

On the Dynamics of a Finite Buffer Queue Conditioned on the Amount of Loss

This paper is concerned with computing large deviations asymptotics for the loss process in a stylized queueing model that is fed by a Brownian input process. In addition, the …

Rare Event Simulation for a Generalized Hawkes Process

In this paper we study rare event simulation for the tail probability of an affine point process that generalizes the Hawkes process. By constructing a suitable exponential …
