Abstract: A multivariate distribution function F is in the max-domain of attraction of an extreme value distribution if and only if this is true for the copula corresponding to F and its univariate margins. Aulbach et al. (2012a) have shown that a copula satisfies the extreme value condition if and only if the copula is tail equivalent to a generalized Pareto copula (GPC). In this paper we propose a chi-square goodness-of-fit test in arbitrary dimension for testing whether a copula is in a certain neighborhood of a GPC. The test can be applied to stochastic processes as well to check whether the corresponding copula process is close to a generalized Pareto process. Since the p-value of the proposed test is highly sensitive to a proper selection of a certain threshold, we also present a graphical tool that makes the decision, whether or not to reject the hypothesis, more comfortable.
It is known that a multivariate distribution function \(F\) belongs to the max-domain of attraction of an extreme value distribution if and only if this holds for the copula related to \(F\) and its univariate margins. Furthermore, it is known that a copula fulfills this extreme value condition if and only if the copula is tail equivalent to a generalized Pareto copula. Thus, a \(\chi^2\)-goodness-of-fit test is suggested for testing whether a copula is in a certain neighborhood of a generalized Pareto copula. The test is then transferred to stochastic processes for checking whether the corresponding copula process is in a certain neighborhood of a generalized Pareto process.
