Estimating 𝐿-Functionals for Heavy-Tailed Distributions and Application

𝐿-functionals summarize numerous statistical parameters and actuarial risk measures. Their sample estimators are linear combinations of order statistics (𝐿-statistics). There exists a class of heavy-tailed distributions for which the asymptotic normality of these estimators cannot be obtained by cla...
