We continue our study of asymptotic expansions for local probabilities $\\mathbf P(S_n=x,\\tau_0>n)$, which has been started in \\cite{DTW23}. Obtained there expansions make sense in the zone $x=o(\\frac{\\sqrt{n}}{\\log^{1/2} n})$ only. In the present paper we derive an alternative expansion, which deals with $x$ of order $\\sqrt{n}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-12-12T10:29:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60G50", "60G40", "60F17" ], "keywords": [ "asymptotic expansions", "normal deviations", "stay positive", "one-dimensional random walk", "zero mean" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 40, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
