摘要
For a zero-delayed random walk on the real line, let tau(x), N(x) and rho(x) denote the first passage time into the interval (x,infinity), the number of visits to the interval (-infinity,x] and the last exit time from (-infinity,x], respectively. In the present paper, we provide ultimate criteria for the finiteness of exponential moments of these quantities. Moreover, whenever these moments are finite, we derive their asymptotic behaviour, as x -> infinity.
