Hitting time statistics and extreme value theory

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that a multimodal map with an invariant measure must satisfy the classical extreme value laws (with no extra condition on the speed of mixing, for example).
Book

Extremes and Recurrence in Dynamical Systems

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a broad overview of the interdisciplinary research area of extreme events, underlining its relevance for mathematics, natural sciences, engineering, and social sciences, and discuss how extreme events can be used as probes for inferring fundamental dynamical and geometrical properties of a dynamical system.

Journal ArticleDOI

The extremal index, hitting time statistics and periodicity

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the extremal index is associated with periodic behaviour and the existence of hitting time statistics for balls around periodic points in a dynamical system with respect to various measures.
