The near-extreme density of intraday log-returns

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the closely related density of "near-extremes" (the distance between a record and the maximal value) and apply this recently proposed method in the empirical validation of an adapted financial market model of the intraday market fluctuations.

Estimates of the likelihood of extreme returns in international stock markets

TL;DR: This article applied extreme value theory to daily international stock-market returns to determine whether or not returns follow a heavy-tailed stable distribution, the likelihood of an extreme return, such as a 20% drop in a single day, and whether the change in the extreme event has changed since October 1987.

The limit distribution of the size of a giant component in an Internet-type random graph

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied a random graph which can be treated as a model of large-scale data transmission systems, including the Internet, and gave conditions for existence of a giant component in such a graph and proved that the limit distribution of the size of this component is normal.
