Abstract: We give the distribution function of Mn, the maximum of a sequence of n observations from an autoregressive process of order 2. Solutions are first given in terms of repeated integrals and then for the case, where the underlying random variables are absolutely continuous. When the correlations are positive, P(M_n leq x) =a_{n,x}, where a_{n,x}= sum_{j=1}^infty �eta_{jx}

u_{jx}^{n} = O (

u_{1x}^{n}), where ujx are the eigenvalues of a non-symmetric Fredholm kernel, and u1x is the eigenvalue of maximum magnitude. The weights depend on the jth left and right eigenfunctions of the kernel. These results are large deviations expansions for estimates, since the maximum need not be standardized to have a limit. In fact such a limit need not exist.
