| contents | The probability that the sum of independent, centered, identically distributed, heavy-tailed random variables achieves a very large value is asymptotically equal to the probability that there exists a single summand equalling that value. We quantify the error in this approximation. We furthermore characterise of the law of the individual summands, conditioned on the sum being large. |
