Basrak, Bojan; Špoljarić, Drago On randomly spaced observations and continuous-time random walks. (English) Zbl 1351.60066 J. Appl. Probab. 53, No. 3, 888-898 (2016). Summary: We consider random variables observed at arrival times of a renewal process, which possibly depends on those observations and has regularly varying steps with infinite mean. Due to the dependence and heavy-tailed steps, the limiting behavior of extreme observations until a given time \(t\) tends to be rather involved. We describe the asymptotics and extend several partial results which appeared in this setting. The theory is applied to determine the asymptotic distribution of maximal excursions and sojourn times for continuous-time random walks.
