The purpose of this study is two-fold. First, we investigate further properties of the second-order regular variation (2RV). These properties include the preservation properties of 2RV under the composition operation and the generalized inverse transform, among others. Second, we derive second-order expansions of the tail probabilities of convolutions of non-independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) heavy-tail random variables, and establish second-order expansions of risk concentration under mild assumptions. The main results extend some ones in the literature from the i.i.d. case to non-i.i.d. case.

Let X1, …, Xn be non-negative, independent and identically distributed random variables with a common distribution function F, and denote by X1:n ≤ ··· ≤ Xn:n the corresponding order statistics. In this paper, we investigate the second-order regular variation (2RV) of the tail probabilities of Xk:n and Xj:n − Xi:n under the assumption that $\bar {F}$ is of the 2RV, where 1 ≤ k ≤ n and 1 ≤ i < j ≤ n.
