Sample quantiles of heavy tailed stochastic processes
Distributions of sample quantiles of measurable stochastic processes are important for the purpose of rational pricing of "look-back" options. In this paper we compute the exact tail behavior of the sample quantile distribution for a large class of infinitely divisible stochastic processes with heavy tails.
