Abstract:
|
It is shown a model of the size of business firms where a low probability (rare events) rely on description of possible outcomes from something very rare. The row sums of independent random samples from this rare events on infinitesimal system scheme tend to a kind of an a-stable distribution with heavy tailed and the tails exhibit power law behavior as a model of growth dynamic for the size of business firms distribution from analysis of large deviation principle.
