Extremes of order statistics of stationary processes

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: Let Xi(t),tge0,1leilen be independent copies of a stationary process X(t),tge0. For given positive constants u,T, define the set of rth conjunctions Cr,T,u:=tin[0,T]:Xr:n(t)>u with Xr:n(t) the rth largest order statistics of X1(t),ldots,Xn(t),tge0. In numerous applications such as brain mapping and digital communication systems, of interest is the approximation of the probability that the set of conjunctions Cr,T,u is not empty. Imposing the Albin's conditions on X, in this paper we obtain an exact asymptotic expansion of this probability as u tends to infinity. Further, we establish the tail asymptotics of the supremum of a generalized skew-Gaussian process and a Gumbel limit theorem for the minimum order statistics of stationary Gaussian processes. As a by-product we derive a version of Li and Shao's normal comparison lemma for the minimum and the maximum of Gaussian random vectors.
