On the small-time behavior of subordinators

TLDR
In this article, it was shown that the Pareto law is the only possible weak limit for the convergence of a stochastic process near t = 0 of a decreasing function.
Abstract
We prove several results on the behavior near t=0 of $Y_t^{-t}$ for certain $(0,\infty)$-valued stochastic processes $(Y_t)_{t>0}$. In particular, we show for L\'{e}vy subordinators that the Pareto law on $[1,\infty)$ is the only possible weak limit and provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence. More generally, we also consider the weak convergence of $tL(Y_t)$ as $t\to0$ for a decreasing function $L$ that is slowly varying at zero. Various examples demonstrating the applicability of the results are presented.

Weak Convergence of Subordinators to Extremal Processes

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that for certain subordinators, the process tends to an extremal process in the sense of convergence of the finite dimensional distributions in the space of functions equipped with Skorohod's $J_1$ metric.

A Numerical Study of Small Parameter Behavior of Some Families of Distributions

TL;DR: This article proposes a procedure for the numerical assessment of the “goodness” of some easy-to-calculate limiting distributions, originally proposed in Bar-Lev and Enis, in various cases of the underlying distributions, some of which are inherently computationally challenging.

Foundations of modern probability

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the relationship between Markov Processes and Ergodic properties of Markov processes and their relation with PDEs and potential theory. But their main focus is on the convergence of random processes, measures, and sets.
