Abstract: For each ngeq1, let Xin,quadigeq1 be independent copies of a nonnegative continuous stochastic process Xn=(Xn(t))tinT indexed by a compact metric space T. We are interested in the process of partial maxima [ ilde M_n(u,t) =max {X_{in}(t), 1 leq ileq [nu]},quad ugeq 0, tin T.] where the brackets [,cdot,] denote the integer part. Under a regular variation condition on the sequence of processes Xn, we prove that the partial maxima process ildeMn weakly converges to a superextremal process ildeM as noinfty. We use a point process approach based on the convergence of empirical measures. Properties of the limit process are investigated: we characterize its finite-dimensional distributions, prove that it satisfies an homogeneous Markov property, and show in some cases that it is max-stable and self-similar. Convergence of further order statistics is also considered. We illustrate our results on the class of log-normal processes in connection with some recent results on the extremes of Gaussian processes established by Kabluchko.
