simCondS {SubTS}R Documentation

Simulation from a conditioned stable distribution.

Description

Implements Algorithm 4.2 in Dassios, Qu, and Lim (2020) to simulate from a stable distribution conditioned on an appropriate event.

Usage

simCondS(t, alpha)

Arguments

t

Parameter > 0.

alpha

Parameter in the open interval (0,1).

Details

Implements Algorithm 4.2 in Dassios, Qu, and Lim (2020) to simulate from a stable distribution conditioned on an appropriate event. There are some typos in this algorithm, which are corrected in Grabchak (2021). These random variables are needed to simulate truncated stable, truncated tempered stable, and p-RDTS random variables.

Value

Returns one random number.
