Extreme Value Theory

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarize results in extreme value theory, which are primarily based on the condition that the upper tail of the underlying df is in the δ-neighborhood of a generalized Pareto distribution.

Toward a Copula Theory for Multivariate Regular Variation

TL;DR: In this paper, the basic ingredients of a measure-theoretic copula theory for multivariate regular variation are presented, and the method is based on extraction of scale-invariant extremal dependence from the intensity measure by standardizing its margins.

Large deviations for random projections of $\ell^p$ balls

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that sequences of such random projections, when suitably normalized, satisfy a large deviation principle (LDP) as the dimension goes to infinity, which can be viewed as an annealed LDP.

Extreme Value Analysis Methods Used for Extreme Wave Prediction

TL;DR: This work aims to review the variety of the extreme wave analysis methods that are utilized in Ocean Engineering and to present the practical inconveniences arising in relevant applications.

Mixed Poisson distributions tail equivalent to their mixing distributions

TL;DR: In this paper, two broad classes of mixing distributions that generate mixed Poisson distributions with this property are identified: unbounded, non-negative distributions with mild regularity conditions that satisfy either (a) the von Mises condition for the Frechet extreme value domain of attraction; or (b) the Von Mises conditions for the Gumbel extreme value Domain of attraction and have hazard rates f ( t )/(1 − F ( t )) of order o( t − b ) for some δ ⩾ 1 2 as t → ∞.
