摘要:𝐿-functionals summarize numerous statistical parameters and actuarial risk
measures. Their sample estimators are linear combinations of order statistics
(𝐿-statistics). There exists a class of heavy-tailed distributions for which the
asymptotic normality of these estimators cannot be obtained by classical results.
In this paper we propose, by means of extreme value theory, alternative
estimators for 𝐿-functionals and establish their asymptotic normality. Our
results may be applied to estimate the trimmed 𝐿-moments and financial risk
measures for heavy-tailed distributions.
